It is with great sadness that we announce the closure of SoberSocial and FamiliesSocial on 31.4.2022.

We really believe in the ethos and spirit of the platform, but it has not been an easy journey to create and maintain and as such we are closing the sites. We endeavor to work with people in recovery locally to find a new way to build peer connection and support so watch this space! If you have any thoughts or feedback, please contact kate.mclaven@changing-lives.org.uk. If you want to fill out a survey about online recovery communities, please do so here.
