🎉 CONGRATULATIONS MITCH! 🎉

Today we’re celebrating some fantastic news as Mitch passed his driving test! 🚗✅

Just over a year ago, Mitch came through the doors of Archway Recovery looking for a different way of life. Today, he is living proof that recovery works.

A loving family man, a reliable employee, a valued member of our recovery community, and now a fully qualified driver.🙏

For many people, passing a driving test is an exciting achievement. In recovery, it often represents so much more confidence rebuilt, opportunities opened, goals achieved, and a future that once felt out of reach becoming reality.

“Let us not get tired of doing good, for we will reap at the proper time if we don’t give up.”
Galatians 6:9 (CSB)

Mitch’s journey reminds us that recovery isn’t just about overcoming addiction. It’s about rebuilding lives, restoring hope, and discovering a whole new way of life.

We’re incredibly proud of you Mitch. Thank you for showing others that change is possible and that recovery can take us further than we ever imagined.

Enjoy the freedom of the open road, Mitch — you’ve worked hard for it! 🚗🎉

❤️ Together, we can recover.❤️

🧡✨ THANK YOU ✨💜

What a beautiful evening celebrating 2 years of Archway Recovery.

Last night was such a powerful reminder of what God can do. Over the past two years we’ve seen lives restored, hope renewed, families supported and people finding freedom from addiction through connection, recovery, faith and the love of Jesus.

Thank you to every single person who came along, helped, encouraged others, served behind the scenes or simply sat in the room with us. Every conversation, prayer and act of kindness has helped make Archway Recovery what it is today.

A huge thank you as well to Steph Macleod for sharing such honest testimony, worship and encouragement with us all.

We are so grateful for this recovery community and for every person who has been part of the journey so far. Above everything, we give God all the glory for continuing to guide, carry and strengthen Archway Recovery every step of the way. 🧡

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble.”— 2 Corinthians 1:3–4 ✝️

Together, we can recover. 💜

🎉 5 Years of Freedom Tony 🎉

Today we’re celebrating a huge milestone for one of our own. Tony celebrates 5 years in recovery and sobriety. 🧡💜

For over 20 years, addiction to he**in and crack co***ne controlled Tony’s life. What once looked hopeless has been completely transformed through recovery, community, and a new way of life.

Today, Tony is known for his laughter, loyalty, honesty, and the way he shows up for others. Whether he’s encouraging newcomers, travelling across North Wales to meetings and unity events, or simply making someone smile when they’re struggling, Tony carries something powerful. Hope.

Recovery didn’t just change Tony’s circumstances.
It changed the man himself.

He has rebuilt relationships, found peace, discovered purpose, and become a living example that no one is too far gone to recover.

Anyone who knows Tony knows he brings heart wherever he goes. He’s proof that recovery is not only possible it’s life changing. ✨

“Let your light shine before others.”
Matthew 5:16 💫

Tony, we love you mate and we’re incredibly proud of the life you continue to build. Thank you for everything you bring to Archway Recovery and to the wider recovery community. 🧡💜

Together, we can recover.

✨ Celebrating 7 Years of Recovery Saffron ✨

Last Friday, our beautiful Saffron celebrated an incredible 7 years in recovery and sobriety. 🎉🧡💜

Seven years ago, addiction, trauma, domestic abuse, he**in, crack co***ne, and alcohol had completely taken over her life. Today, she is a loving mum and nana, a sponsor to women in recovery, a huge part of the North Wales recovery community, and a woman full of strength, compassion, honesty, and hope.

The same woman who once felt hopeless now helps other women believe recovery is possible. ✨

Saffron is living proof that recovery works. ✨

Proof that even the most broken lives can be rebuilt.

Proof that no matter how hopeless addiction feels, a completely different life is possible.

Her journey is powerful, real, emotional, and inspiring and her life today speaks louder than words ever could. 💜

“She is clothed with strength and dignity and laughs without fear of the future.”
Proverbs 31:25 ✨

We are so proud of you, Saffron. 🧡
Thank you for carrying hope so openly and showing others that freedom, healing, and a new way of life are truly possible.

Together, we can recover. 🧡💜
