Lived Experience Advisory Group (LEAG) Quarterly Meeting

LEAG Poster

 

People struggling with addiction, mental health, safe housing, and poverty, have often been excluded from having their say in how healthcare, drug and alcohol treatment, safety, and risk are supported through services and organisations.

Our community may not feel comfortable in voicing their opinions, as maybe they haven’t been listened to, or acted upon in the past.

LEAG wants to hear from our lived and living experience community, who have used drug & alcohol support services currently, historically, and for any amount of time.

We are committed at SUIT, and with the support of Recovery Near You & Wolverhampton Council’s public health Drug and Alcohol Commissioner towards shaping services from the expert experiences of the people using drug & alcohol support.

The quarterly LEAG meeting is for clients and volunteers who shape our important work in supporting recovery.

The next meeting will be held at Connaught Road Recovery Hub, on Thursday 27th June, 2pm. This is a face-to-face meeting, supported by a lived-experience member of the SUIT team. All opinions and comments will be valued and listened to.

 

SUIT are a lived-experience recovery organisation working alongside the treatment provider Recovery Near You, to ensure service user voice plays an equal part in how services are managed.
