After negotiations with the landlord, James and the team took over the running of Penrhyn House and have since been running a rehabilitation programme for people with addictions to drugs and alcohol, they also provide a range of abstinent accommodation from both Penrhyn House and dispersed across Bangor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">NWRC now has a team of six staff; all staff are in recovery themselves, and two have used NWRC services previously to support them on their recovery journey. Working and recruiting in this way has contributed to an democratic ethos amongst staff and clients, enabling them to work honestly and openly together, creating an environment in which people can overcome their addictions and rebuild their lives. Recently they have established Bwyd Dda, a caf\u00e9 in Bangor, run entirely by the residents. They have also set up a food delivery service and run an allotment at Moel y Ci. Plans are underway to move to the buildings of the former Hillgrove School on Ffriddoedd Road as their tenancy at Penrhyn House runs out next April.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2023\/07\/Penrhyn-House.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-5247\" src=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2023\/07\/Penrhyn-House-246x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"246\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2023\/07\/Penrhyn-House-246x300.jpg 246w, https:\/\/sigbi.org\/bangor-and-district\/files\/2023\/07\/Penrhyn-House.jpg 595w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 246px) 100vw, 246px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lin welcomed Richard Price, Duty Officer from Penrhyn House, Bangor who gave a very informative&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":818,"featured_media":5247,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5246","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-club-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>PENRHYN HOUSE - North Wales Recovery Centre | News | Blog | Events | SI Bangor and District<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Bangor and District : Blog &amp; News : PENRHYN HOUSE - North Wales Recovery Centre : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Bangor and District .
