Quotes from ESRA clients:

“I appreciated the support from clients and staff, they made me feel that there is something better than drink and drugs, even though since losing a close friend I have really struggled but I haven’t picked up. If it wasn’t for ESRA and their support I would have given in”.

“The support I have received at ESRA has been really helpful. Support with Doctors appointments, sorting out bills, and round my hip operation.”

“The constant support being offered even when I wasn’t ready to hear it. The community aspect of ESRA, peer support has been crucial for me and my recovery. ESRA have been fundamental in stopping me push that self-destruct button”.

“I’m neuro divergent, and I found the atmosphere not too much and welcoming. Peer group was very helpful. Having a face-to-face group was really good, you can only get some much from online groups”.
