Last week, Harlow’s Member of Parliament, Robert Halfon, visited Essex Recovery Foundations’ cafe in the Harlow Playhouse to meet with the professionals and volunteers at the charity, and the members who benefit from the support available.
Speaking about the visit Mr Halfon said: “I was really pleased to visit the Harlow recovery cafe at the Playhouse. Essex Recovery Foundation, which runs the cafe, is an incredible organisation that offers practical support to those recovering from addiction.
“The Foundation’s team is making a massive difference to those who attend, getting together and chatting over tea and cake from the wonderful Playhouse staff. It is vital that we support schemes such as the Essex Recovery Foundation, which is helping to end drug and alcohol addiction in Harlow.
“I would like to thank Steve, Sara and Ben who invited me to visit last week for everything they do to support Harlow people. If you need help with addiction or just want to talk, I strongly encourage you to go to one of their sessions, held every Wednesday between 10.30am - 12.30pm in the new Recovery Cafe at the Harlow Playhouse.”
