“The birch leaf that is now part of our logo is the ancient Celtic symbol of new beginnings. We think that message is particularly appropriate for us as an addiction treatment centre and it also serves as an important reminder for all of those who pass through our doors, who are beginning their journey to recovery or reviewing their recovery status.”
Their annual report found that the number of clients presenting with cocaine addiction continue to climb – in 2017, incidents of cocaine addiction doubled at the centre and a further 5% increase was reported in 2018. The report also found an increase in younger clients – in 2018, there was a 30% increase in clients aged between 24 and 29.
