It’s summer time and London can be a bit quiet at the weekends for people in recovery so we are organising BBQs for the weekends right through the summer now for our ex patients. We will open our doors at 11am and turf people out about 4pm. We would simply ask that people bring a sausage or some soda pop to drink, to contribute to the day. As people seem to keep touch in different ways would you please let any other ex patients know this is on? Do call us in Kendrick for the address…

Recent results from a study by Norwich Union Health Care show that a large number of employees admit to being drunk or hung-over at their desks. Long hours, stress and high expectations of employees has led to a culture where drinking is considered the norm and one in three admit to being hung-over at work and one in ten being drunk.

Alcoholism is one of the most common addictions treated at PROMIS. If you as an employer are concerned about any of your staff or you as a employee are worried about the level of your drinking and require advice on what is best to do then please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be more than happy to help, we pride ourselves on discretion and are able to offer various treatment programmes for the treatment of alcoholism.
