Knowsley Integrated Recovery Service - CGL

Community Harm Reduction Team at Incredible Edible Court Hey Park

Today, our Community Harm Reduction Team were out at Incredible Edible Court Hey Park, engaging with local residents and offering information, advice, and support about the services available through CGL.

The team provided guidance on reducing harm, improving health and wellbeing, and accessing support for alcohol and substance use. We also shared information on the range of free and confidential services available to individuals and families across Knowsley.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped to chat with us. If you or someone you know could benefit from support, please don’t hesitate to reach out – help is available, and recovery is possible.💜
