About Recovery Focus

Non-profit Organizations
1,001-5,000 employees

In October 2024, Humankind and Richmond Fellowship merged to form Waythrough. We’re specialists in mental health, alcohol, drugs and related areas.

Our high quality, evidence-based services are designed around the needs of the people we serve.

We know that people and their problems don’t fit into neatly labelled boxes. And that finding help can be hard when life gets messy. Too many people hit dead ends when they need open doors and answers. That’s where Waythrough comes in.

Our vision is to break down the barriers that stop people getting the support they need to live a life they value. It’s a big ask, but one we aren’t shy of.

To everyone that comes through our doors, we promise: Wherever you are now, we won’t judge or write you off. We’ll help you work out who you want to be and where you want to go. We’ll stick with you until you’re ready to move on.
