Скачать или смотреть The North Wales Recovery Communities (NWRC): James Deakin

James describes activities of the NWRC, eight years on from its initial development. It has a residence that houses 18 people, and provides a space for a larger group of people to engage in mutual aid groups daily. It organises outside activities, such as hill walking for recovering people. The Growing for Change project, with its gardens and allotments, engages community members in beneficial activities and provides food for local restaurants, including the community cafe Bwyd Da Bangor.

The latter not only provides the best food on High Street, Bangor, but operates a surplus food club and organises special events, such as a dinner for families with autistic children. James says, ‘We get well, we gain strength by giving our time and efforts away to other people.’ NWRC tries to be of service to all marginalised groups in the local community. James Deakin is Founder of North Wales Recovery Communities (NWRC). 15 May 2023.
