Wired In To Recovery Nov 28. 08
It was probably the end of May last year when I first met David Clark from the ‘Wired Initiative’. We (Nine Four) had been put in touch with David by our good friends at Voyage Design who were at the time working with David on a consultancy basis.
During our first meeting David talked with great enthusiasm about the vision which he had to create an online recovery community for those affected by substance misuse.
Although I don’t have a great deal of direct experience in the subject matter, the stories which David told me of instantly grabbed my attention and my interest. Since then we’ve been working with David and his amazing team (Kevin & Lucie) to design and develop the first phase of the ‘Wired In’ online recovery community and late last week the site finally went live.
I’ve been lucky enough to be involved with a number of content and community focused sites before, but the sheer volume and quality of content which the Wired In team have been pumping into the site over the past month or so has blown me away!
Kudos to David because he has funded this entirely out of his own pocket, using his retirement money to build a community that will empower people to tackle their drug and alcohol use problems.
Please take some time to visit Wired In and pass the URL on to friends and family. :)
