‘We have a lucrative addiction industry in Scotland that’s been a good earner for middle-class people who don’t really believe in recovery. Much of this is based on class’ heraldscotland.com/news/2089…
Well done Team Patchwork and big thanks to @RRT_UK for the catering and @YMCA Kilmarnock for allowing us full access to your premises
