Padiham Town Hall was buzzing with energy as the East Lancashire County User Forum (LUF) gathered for their quarterly event, bringing together community members, support organisations, and inspiring speakers. The event was a celebration of resilience, recovery, and collective support, highlighting the vital work being done across the region.

The day featured a diverse range of talks, including powerful personal recovery stories that shed light on the challenges and triumphs of individuals overcoming adversity. Various local organisations also took the stage to share insights into their services, offering guidance on how members of the community can access crucial support.

Adding to the uplifting atmosphere, live music was provided by the Red Rose Recovery East band, creating a lively and engaging backdrop for the day's activities. Attendees also had the chance to take part in a charity raffle, with all funds raised being split between two charities in memory of Jenna Hayes, a beloved colleague who sadly passed away last month.
