Lived Experience Recovery Organisations Evaluation

Background

Lived Experience Recovery Organisations (LEROs) are led at all levels by people with lived experience and may be involved in providing support for people in treatment or recovery for drug and alcohol use. The Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, in partnership with the government’s Recovery Champion, are working to support the sustainable growth of LEROs, including their incorporation into systems of care for people who use drugs and alcohol.
