We offer a warm welcome to Scott who has just joined us as a gardener. We have such beautiful grounds that it really deserves the attention of a speciallist to let them shine.
Scott has already run through nearly all the flower beds giving us a lovely arrangement for autumn. More pics to follow!
Cathryn Kemp chronicled her brave detoxification experience from powerful pain relieving medications last year in an article published in the Sun Newspaper in order to give insight into the difficultes of coming of prescribed medications and hope to others.
As well as writing about her experience at PROMIS Cathryn also spent her time creating a new body of art during this emotional and difficult time. She had a number of canvesses in her room and around our site that she was working on.
Since then the works that Cathryn created have received a good deal of public acclaim. Please take a look at them on the Saatchi Galery Website : http://www.saatchionline.com/profiles/index/id/115385
Rediscovering one’s creativity is an important part of many people’s recovery. Often we are afraid that recovery will be a hindrance to our creativity when in fact it is the opposite. Cathryn shows us this very clearly.

Catheryn Kemp describes her brave battle to come of pain killers in an article she has written for the Sun newspaper.
Read this fascinating account here:
On Saturday afternoon half a dozen of us went out to learn to shoot clay pigeons. We were given some excellent tuition from Peter who helped us get on target.
Recovery should also be about having fun, we have a busy therapeutic schedule at PROMIS, learning new skills, but it is also just as important to learn how to enjoy free time without our addictions. Whether it’s horse riding, climbing or shooting, we will help our patients find their recovery fun as well as uplifting.
We have a wildlife park right next to our premises in Kent where a family of Beavers have just been released into the wild for the first time in 300 years.
We have brought 6 chickens to the farm and intend to produce some of our own eggs. (more…)
