Drug and Alcohol Partnership: Small Funded Project Feedback

We are delighted to be collaborating with West Sussex County Council on the Drugs and Alcohol Partnership; a project that was commissioned to bring the voice of service users together to develop lived experience solution-focused services.

An integral part of the Partnership is the fund managed by CAPITAL, that gives small amounts of money to grassroots community start-ups.

The impact of these projects has been extraordinary; in just a short amount of time attendees have said things like this:

CREATIVE SPACE

‘I always come away feeling inspired by people’s creativity’

‘It’s great to get creative in a laid back way’

CARERS SUPPORT

‘Carers support is my lifeline; I cannot talk to anyone else who understands my situation’

‘At the groups, I have met long life friends who ‘get it’ and we all meet now regularly outside of the group’

COOKING WITH FOOD BANK FOOD

“It’s good being able to spend time with others cooking rather than drinking’

..'.’Really good recipes that are simple to make’
