Magdelena Gross
Recovery Community Engagement Coordinator (Bedford)
My role is to support the growth of the recovery community in Bedford Borough and Central Bedfordshire.
I believe it is of critical importance to offer a safe space to those who seek ways to support their journeys to recovery. I trust in the saying that “connection is the opposite of addiction” – rain or shine, the community is there to support one another.
I am proud to have joined CLI, the organisation which focuses on empowering people and helping them to rebuild their lives.
I believe and share the values of CLI – putting people first, community and transformation are one of the closest to my heart, that’s why I wanted to become one of the CLI team members.
Joining CLI enables me to do what I love and am passionate about – helping others to recover from addiction and watch them gain strength and confidence to live life on its terms and what is very important to smile and laugh – inside and outside.
