#MileShy Meet Up - The Recovery Project

This page is for those who want to sign up to the new piece of work we are doing with those in recovery, or those thinking about changing their relationship with alcohol and/or drugs. Your details will be treated in the strictest of confidence. (A link to our Privacy policy is here).

We’ve been funded by the Achieve Recovery Fund to work with people aged 16+ living in Trafford. As part of this project, you will be inducted into our couch to 5k running clubs (or walking clubs, if you prefer) and be given priority access to our new pilot project - #MileShy Meet Up.

#MileShy Meet Up is a free mental health support group with a difference - each session will be structured around a health and wellness theme - from mindfulness to yoga, from healthy habits to motivational speakers - we have an exciting list of activities planned every Friday evening for 6 months, starting 19th April 2024 with a “Welcome to the Club” session. We want this group to be YOUR group, a safe space where you can meet like-minded people in a supportive, home-from-home setting. Most of the Meet Up sessions will take place out of Coppice Library in Sale, however, we may organise sessions at other venues to accommodate different activities.

Places for the support groups are on a first-come-first served basis and you must register to attend in advance. Once you have completed the form below, you will be emailed the booking link for each Meet Up session every week.

Please note that there is a £2 charge to attend the running and walking clubs, pay-as-you-go at the session. The Meet Up mental health support group is free to attend.

Recovery Project Registration Form and Medical Questionnaire

Many health benefits are associated with regular exercise, and the completion of PAR-Q (Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire) is a sensible first step to take if you are planning to increase the amount of physical activity in your life. For most people, physical activity should not pose any problem or hazard. PAR-Q is designed to identify the small number of adults for whom physical activity might be inappropriate or those who should have medical advice concerning the type of activity most suitable for them. Common sense is the best guide in answering these few questions. Please read them carefully and answer ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to the questions below.
