Peer Support Groups are so needed
and have a place in a treatment plan

- Recovery Code X Community Bubble focus group

A haven for traumatised men - a Complex PTSD peer support group, could become a reality in 2022 if we take heed of the advice received in a pre-Christmas gathering of mental health industry professionals and volunteers, writes ANNA BRAGGA, founder of Recovery Code X.
People with acute conditions are more likely to have a rough time in services, and this is why peer support groups are so needed, said one delegate, whose work puts her in touch with consumers complaints. Read the full story.

Welcome to RECOVERY CODE X

We are a community organisation advocating holistic techniques to help people on their healing journey of transforming the effects of Complex PTSD (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder).

Grant from Bedford Borough Council

A helping hand from the Community Chest Fund will help keep us in business

When project costs get used up we still have running costs to cover, that keep the organisation ticking over, like for example the renewal of our PO Box address, displayed on our literature and website. Thanks to the support of Bedford Borough Council we'll be able to continue to keep in touch with our supporters, suppliers, financial and legal institutions right through the remainder of this year and next year.

Distributing Complex PTSD self-help factsheets

Guidance for sufferers, their friends, families and partners

Thanks to financial support from the National Lottery Awards For All, Recovery Code X has written, designed and printed these four practical self-help guides. We're accepting orders from health and holistic wellbeing centres, pharmacies and GP and hospital waiting areas in order to reach those who need them most.

To place an order email: admin@recoverycodex.org

Face-to-face peer support groups for men and women

Bringing back the Survivors Hub

Now that the threat of lockdowns is fading, Recovery Code X is turning its attention to running face-to-face peer support groups in Bedford. The positive feedback we received from our women's group in 2019/20 combined with new enquiries has encouraged us to consider a new series of sessions for 2022. With sufficient levels of interest we'll be able to apply for a grant to cover the running costs and ensure access to all. We welcome enquiries from men and women, LGBTQ, so please don't hold back. Register your interest by email: admin@recoverycodex.org
