Welcome to this information website. We have built the site to provide information and resources to support people in recovery should they wish to return to work. In our work with people in recovery they have often expressed fear and apprehension about returning to work. Fears such as increase stress, losing benefits are commonly stated. This site aims to give information and share knowledge to help tackle these fears.
In our meetings with various agencies offering employment support it has been a real learning experience for us in terms of the various supports both personal and financial that are available to enable people to return to work. The key factor being that anybody in work will be better of financially. This being regardless of what benefits people maybe on.
Research and our own experience of working with people in recovery has highlighted that with the personal desire and the right support people in recovery can return to work. In doing so its a win/win situation. In that people have expressed being better off finacially, physically, mentally with increased self esteem and self worth. For more information take a look at the facts and figures page.
We wish you well in your goals for your recovery, please take a full look at the website. If you would like to talk to us please call us at the North Dorset Community Resource Team 01747 823035. GOOD LUCK!!!
Remember being in work is good for you "IN WORK BETTER OFF"
