Listener Reviews

Well done Neil Firbank and the Believe In People Team.
I've heard Neils story many times Neil was my Mentor and Supervisor as I navigated my way from being in services to becoming a Recovery Worker.Neil is a lighthouse that shines the way for others to find safety and is very humble.His passion for seeing the best in people when others don't is remarkable and something that has left an impression on me I'll never forget.Neils story is a reminder that anything can be achieved if you work hard enough.This was a great listen and I'm proud to not only call him a mentor but a true friend who is helping push my own peer support group as well as all the incredible work he does with Recovery Games.Well done to the team who made this podcast and provided a safe space without judgement for a real warrior to share his truth. šŸ’œ
Personal reflection
Had been listening to this podcast for a while about real lived experience of substance misuse and often recommend it to people i was working with. To then feature on an episode was an amazing experience attending at the studio Matt and Robbie, really made me feel at ease. The response we have had since my podcast was aired has been amazing.Well done guys on producing an amazing show, and helping others shared there lived experience.
Wonderful
Fantastic podcast! Raising awareness about such a stigmatised topic.
Loved it!
Searching for something to listen to, happened upon this and listened to Kevin Kennedy. I’m 20 years around and he and Clare have been part of my journey over the years. Now to listen to the rest, great find!
Amazing!
Fantastic idea for a podcast. What an amazing way to spread awareness ā¤ļø
