A FREE course for people in the Keighley area who want to continue recovering from drug and alcohol dependency will be starting again at the end of this month. (Sept) A spokesman for the programme, which is run by the group Keighley Choices working with Stay Free Ltd, said: "The course is highly recommended by those who have previously taken part.

"As well as helping them stay free of drugs and alcohol, it resulted in improved emotional well-being and better relationships with family and friends.

"The course starts on September 30 and will be held weekly on Tuesday evenings.

"Working in groups, participants will be able to consider their own patterns of behaviour and to learn from the experience of others who have used the twelve-step programme to become drug and alcohol free."

People interested in signing up for the sessions can contact Danny Bones on 07855 858849 or e-mail dannybones.stayfree@gmail.com for more information.
