SOUTH COMMUNITY RECOVERY NETWORK
“SCRN recognise that a person’s lived experience is their best asset and we welcome anybody who has an interest in recovery”
The South Community Recovery Network is a partnership of peer led, person centred recovery initiatives, drop ins and support groups throughout the south sector of Glasgow.
The initiatives have been created and developed by volunteers with lived experience in overcoming many barriers throughout their lives to access routes to recovery from alcohol and drug misuse. They now work towards helping others achieve the same freedom.
To maintain the network a steering committee, with representatives from all initiatives, meet weekly and feed directly into a weekly business meeting.
