Betel is a safe and inspiring place where men and women can come free of charge and overcome drug and alcohol addiction. We're helping addicts in 24 countries and 100 cities. Here in the UK, we have around 280 men and women in our care and we've begun a welcoming new centre in Motherwell. Betel is a self funding, non profitable charity. We do not receive government funding - instead, we teach new skills such as gardening and tree surgery, upholstery, and furniture restoration. In turn, this generates an income and empowers our recovering addicts to pay for their own recovery. This strengthens their self-worth, confidence and restores a sense of hope for the future. I myself was an addict and alcoholic. I entered the doors of Betel in 2006, lost, frightened, underweight, and with no hope for the future. But the love of people and the generosity of others encouraged me that life could be better. Ten years down the line, I'm drug free and alcohol free. What's more, I'm now married and I'm continuing to live and work with those who are less fortunate. We're a large charity but very small in comparison to the need there is out there within our country. We have and will continue to see men and women break free from addiction. To achieve this, we need your help! We hope to accommodate 20 to 25 adults here in Motherwell centre and will hopefully open another where there's great need. Eventually, our vision is to have a centre in every city so we can empower more people to overcome their addictions. All our residents are peer led by volunteers like myself that have gone through and overcome addiction. They know they aren't alone and can achieve what they set their hearts and minds on, as we have.
