Honesty, Integrity & Experience

Meet the core people behide our success

Rebecca set up Recharge in 2015 it was her vision to open a project for young people and give them choices for support with recovery from substance use, and for this support to be given by people with lived experience of similar issues and who had successfully gained recovery.

Over the past 7 years, Recharge has gone from strength to strength supporting young people whilst becoming embedded within the local community and recognised for the work it does and last year it was awarded The High Sheriff of Shropshire Community Award for service to the community.

Rebecca is the driving force behind Recharge, she draws on her 30 years professional experience of working in the community and her own lived experience of being in long term recovery herself to run this successful Community Interest Company.

She is a qualified youth worker and further education tutor as well as being a qualified holistic therapist and mindfulness teacher, Rebecca incorporates these skills to bring an a holistic approach for the support given at Recharge, she believes every young person needs at least one safe adult who believes in them and can help them reach their potential.
