Services for Clients
Empathy
'Empathy means to be preoccupied by the thoughts and feelings of other people, putting yourself in their place, trying to think like them.'
-Neculai Ioan Fantanaru
Aurora puts the relationship between peer mentors and clients at the heart of its project.
Our peer mentors are all volunteering to share their experiences of their journey through treatment for substance misuse. They are all individuals that have faced the same challenges that you may be facing right now.
Who Do We Work With?
-
We work with clients that are engaged, or thinking of engaging, with substance misuse treatment in the London borough of Lambeth.
-
We assess clients on a case by case basis and will match our volunteers to clients that have had similar experiences.
-
We hope that this relationship will help empower both our volunteers and clients.
