Generated concept of a calm men's recovery camp with gardens, practical work and shared meals in coastal island bush

Surf-side men's alcohol and drug free camp.

Initial local conversations and groundwork have begun around culture, mentoring, routine, food, gardens, useful work and support beyond the stay.

Generated concept image

Four parts of the current camp concept.

Alcohol and drug free living

A steady daily setting centred on food, sleep, routine and peer support.

Culture and peer support

Yarning, mentoring and cultural connection shaped by the relevant men.

Routine and useful work

Cooking, gardens, maintenance, making and repair provide structure, skills and visible contribution.

Plans beyond the camp

Housing, employment, health, family and continuing support form part of the pathway from the beginning.

Clinical care needs qualified services.

The camp concept concerns an alcohol and drug free cultural living environment. Detoxification, withdrawal management and clinical treatment sit with health services.
