project bring for par
We are based adjacent to Champness Hall, which is an older building. We have not been in a
position to decorate and re-furbish our Common room for some years. This is the first point of
contact for our service users each time they access our service. We would like to decorate/paint
the common room, re-carpet and purchase fresh seating and tables. We would also like to
purchase an overhead projector and screen. We run a 7 session training course for our volunteers
and feel this would greatly enhance the quality of the sessions we are able to offer. We feel that by
enhancing the environment for our volunteers and service users will feel valued. This will enhance
outcomes as work group work is run in the evenings in this room and at times during the day.
Rochdale Borough Geography we are one of the 10 LA’s in Greater Manchester area. Rochdale
has 4 Townships divided into 20 Wards. Rochdale is the 29th Most deprived (IMD 2010) and 16
LSOAs are in the 3% most deprived LSOA5 in England. Rates of unemployment have increased
and were highest among males. Rochdale has higher rates of unemployment and long-term
unemployment among 16-24 year olds than both the Greater Manchester and England & Wales
averages. The proportion of residents on out of work benefits remains above North West and
national comparators. In addition rates of unemployment increased and were highest among
males. The proportion of residents on out of work benefits remains above North West and national
comparators.

We know this work is needed because we have a service users base of 300 or over at all times of
the year. This has been the case for the 14 years we have been open. Although our service users
do move on from our service there is always a new influx of service users.
High Level supports people recovering from addiction by building visible recovery in the community
taking into consideration many factors such as physical, psycholigical and biological issues by

building cultural, social, human and physical capital. Examples of this would be prevention of
homelessness, dual diagnosis and mental health issues, domestic violence, criminal activity and
anti-socail behaviour.
Thereby reducing costs to statutory systems such as the NHS, criminal justice, mental health and
welfare. Enabling people to make effective lifestyle choices, which benefit themselves and our
community.
