Story
Together with some faithful supporters, our residents are attempting to climb Mount Everest to raise money for the Good Samaritan Fund. (Well, we are climbing the equivalent at the Oakwood Climbing Centre in Wokingham on 1st May). That's 1,107 times up the wall between us all!
Overcoming addiction can feel like climbing a mountain, but together we can conquer Everest, one step at a time!

Funding for drug and alcohol rehabilitation is getting ever-harder to access. That is why our Good Samaritan Fund is becoming increasingly important for those who cannot obtain statutory funding and cannot afford to pay their fees privately. The Fund is financed entirely from donations and really can be a lifeline to many who ask us for help. Because of the Good Samaritan Fund, we have been able to offer places to many men who would not otherwise have had the opportunity. We never want to turn down a suitable resident through lack of funds and, last financial year, we have accepted more residents than ever without other funding. Thank you for supporting this fund, and enabling more men to access our programmes and have the chance of a new life.
