People Like You promotes and is an advocate for mental wellbeing and recovery from mental illness. We empower people to embrace the recovery journey and realise their potential.
The fresh project is a recovery and mental wellbeing program that is located on a 30 acre property on the outskirts of melbourne. It is a community of like minded people who choose to focus on what we can do, rather than what we can't. We focus on health, wellbeing and community.
The fresh project is hands-on and we learn through participating in a range of rewarding activities. In a normal day we will tend to our veggie patches, orchard, bees and chickens then have a bbq lunch that includes fresh food the we have grown.
The lived experience of the group members directs our programs, which are always recovery focused. The fresh project is a motivating, welcoming and inspiring place to learn new skills to improve your mental health and move toward recovery.
It is confidential, non-judgemental and free of charge. We all have a unique perspective and help each other along the path to recovery. It's not therapy — it' s therapeutic.
We are currently renovating our website, so stay tuned. In the meantime please visit our facebook page for all the up to date information about People Like You and the Fresh project. Contact: cameron@peoplelikeyou.org.au The recovery program is on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month and runs from 11am to 5pm.
