“I started at Core after being kicked out of residential rehab, I was 34. I had been taking drugs since a very early age and on heroin since 16. The last time I was clean was when I was 12. The last 18 months of my using were particularly horrific.

"From a bedraggled half living corpse on the brink of the abyss, from a situation where death seemed a very good option, always sick, unhealthy to the max, always scratching for cash and a love life that was so lacking it hurt.
