How to Join or Support Us
We have no Funding from Church or state, so if you
can help us financially we would be extremely grateful. At the moment
The house is managed by Br Creos' Disability pension (due to Hepatitus
C, genotype 1) part-time employment and valuable donations. It often
falls short as we are renting.
Entrance
We are a Catholic entity but anyone can access
our service, regardless of creed, religion, nationality or language.
All you need is Just a desire to be clean and, at the moment, for
males only.
Are you an addict that wants to stay clean?
Hopefully you have undergone or going through a professionally
supervised detoxification programme before joining the Community
in Magdalen House. Once the farm is established home based detox
will be provided on site.
Brother Angels
Do you wish to become part of the team by joining us as a Brother-Angel?
You need not to have been an addict yourself but some experience
in this area would be extremely beneficial. You do need to be Catholic
but at least aspiring to be. If so we would love to hear from you.
