Access
Recovery is a human right and everyone should be able to access recovery support throughout their recovery journey.
Equal
Harm reduction, treatment and recovery support are equally important.
Flexible
Support should be flexible and provided for as long as needed.
Individual
Recovery treatment and support remains with the individual.
Recovery support
Recovery is an individual journey, and it can mean different things to different people.
There are a number of online tools that can help people on their recovery journey. We also run regular groups and offer employment support for people who are being supported by our teams.
Our Academy aims to support individual and collective recovery through learning, training, mentoring and volunteering in a welcoming and supportive environment.
Are you concerned about a friend or family member’s substance use?
We can help you. We offer support to family members, carers and friends of people facing substance use issues.
This could be via one-to-one sessions, group sessions or online support.
Whether this month has been a reset, a challenge, or a step toward longer‑term change, these Dry January journaling prompts offer a gentle way to check in with yourself and explore what you’ve learned. 📓
Remember: every person’s journey with alcohol and drugs is different, and every step toward wellbeing matters.

Skye came to NRN looking for support with her ketamine use. As her physical and emotional health worsened, she began to recognise that ketamine had become a way of coping with the trauma of a serious car accident.
With specialist health support and her support worker by her side, Skye has gone from strength to strength and is rebuilding her future.
She’s sharing her story to raise awareness, reduce harm, and remind others they’re not alone 💙
