About Me
"After battling with drink, drugs and my mental health for years, in 2023 I decided to turn my life around…. This has proven to be the hardest but best decision that I have ever made.
I am now in the best mental, emotional and physical health of my life and want to help others in our community achieve the same with the support of The Recovery Group. " ~ Stephen Melling, Director ,The Recovery Group. (CIC)
