What is the Life Course?

Looking for a holistic course that looks at all of life and not just the addiction? The Life Course is an unique 18 session life-skills programme to support people in recovery from the causes and impact of addiction. The goal is to make sustainable changes that will build stable foundations for the next season of life. It seeks to help participants develop an increased sense of personal agency for ‘living well in recovery’ learning skills to navigate life’s opportunities and challenges without returning to old behaviours and emotional responses.

Attend our Bristol Life Course

Boredom is a recovery killer, but when you get together and invest time with others into making positive changes then doors can begin to open to new possibilities beyond survival mode. Join with us on one of our Life Courses, which run three times a year from our Midland Road office. You can self-refer or be referred by a support worker. It is a safe space (and a brave space) to explore life skills together with a group of like-minded people looking to build a deeper resilience and confidence into life. The staff team and peer support volunteers, together, support you to write the next chapter in your life story.

Run a Life Course where you are
