Welcome to Edition 14 of Collectivism dedicated to Recovery Month - celebrating the achievements of those in recovery from substance misuse and addiction.
This edition features articles written by those who are either in recovery themselves or are working alongside people in recovery. Similarly all photography and illustration is by those in recovery or by creative practitioners in the field of recovery.
The lived experience and insight around the issues of addiction and recovery are informative, inspirational and act as an encouragement to others who have not yet embarked on the journey to recovery.
We are grateful to all who have shared their testimonies and artwork with us. It has been a privilege to work on this edition and indeed, 'Recovery is For Everyone:Every Person, Every Family, Every Community'.
