The team is based on professional counsellors with many years experience of working in prisons with prisoners with addiction problems and every member of the team is either in recovery or had direct family experience of addiction. Together they have several decades of recovery.

The team also includes ex-offenders who are in recovery and are committed to sharing their experience with others both in prison and on release.
