Jakes's fundraiser for The Living Recovery Foundation

Jacob Pond is raising money for The Living Recovery Foundation

Tissington trail marathon · 26 April 2026

Every day, we support up to 30 individuals, offering: - Addiction recovery services. - Housing and tenancy support. - Employment and skill-building opportunities. - Mental health and trauma assistance. - Family support, fostering long-term stability and unity. These services are life-saving and transformative, but they require significant resources to deliver effectively. How You Can Help To fund our new projects and ensure the continuity of these vital services, we’ve launched a JustGiving page. Your support will help us sustain recovery programs, aftercare, and ongoing assistance that make a real difference in people’s lives. By contributing, you’ll be helping us to secure a brighter future for individuals and families in Derby, ensuring these life-changing services remain available for years to come. Thank you for standing with us during this important time. Together, we can continue to change lives and build stronger communities. Neil and the Team

Story

Last October, my life was at its darkest. I was addicted to heroin, lost, and convinced I had no future. I attempted to take my own life because I couldn’t see any way forward.

Then I found Jericho House — and everything changed.

Jericho House didn’t just support me; they saved my life. They gave me hope when I had none, stability when everything felt chaotic, and compassion when I couldn’t even care about myself. The people there believed in me long before I could believe in myself.

Jericho House has now become its own charity, **The Living Recovery Foundation**, with a vision to grow, expand, and reach even more people battling addiction. Their mission is to offer life-changing recovery to those who need it most — and I’m living proof of the impact they can have.

I’m running this marathon to give back to the place that gave me a second chance.

Every donation, no matter the amount, will directly support their work and help someone else find hope, healing, and a future worth fighting for.

Thank you for helping me support The Living Recovery Foundation — and for standing with those on their journey to recovery.
