DATUS Enabling Recovery

DATUS Enabling Recovery We help individuals and communities feel they are in control of, and stakeholders in, their own process of change

DATUS Enabling Recovery is a grassroots peer-led charity that was conceived, founded and developed by a group of individuals in recovery in 2007. All our services are delivered by individuals in recovery and we believe this is a significant factor in our success at engaging with stigmatised groups. Being peer-led means that DATUS, while still delivering a professional service, ensures that represe

ntative from its core beneficiaries, are not only represented but active at board level and within the staff team. DATUS was born out of supporting individuals who suffer from addiction. We have established a versatile system of independent and anonymous involvement and consultation.

Some of our members took part in their first session of the Datus Recovery Day Programme, an intensive, evidence-based programme offering therapy, counselling, and peer support over 8–12 weeks.
During the session, participants were introduced to practical tools and guidance to help manage addiction, build essential life skills, and support long-term recovery. The day concluded with an introduction to mindfulness, including a calming singing bowl practice.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our new Counselling and Psychotherapy Service, now available to all DATUS members.

This free, confidential service offers a safe, non-judgemental space to talk, reflect, and work through challenges such as low mood, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma, or life transitions.

Support is available both online and face-to-face, delivered by a qualified and experienced therapist. We strongly encourage members to take advantage of this valuable support and prioritise their wellbeing—early support can make a meaningful difference during one’s recovery journey.

🎄 Merry Christmas from all of us at DATUS 🎄

The holidays can bring joy… but they can also bring challenges. If this season feels heavy, lonely, or triggering, please know this: you’re not alone, and support is here.

Our LIFE mutual aid groups remain a safe, confidential space to connect, be heard, and get through the festive period together. Reaching out is a strength — whether you need support, connection, or just a reminder that you matter.

Be gentle with yourself this Christmas 💙
We’re here whenever you need us.
