Drywave Recovery is a Clayton based organisation working with people in recovery from addiction through sober events, arts and holistic support.

Ben Riley and Will Power are recovery advocates and co founded Drywave having overcome addiction and low mental health. They are passionate about supporting others on their journey to recovery through wellbeing and social inclusion. 

Step Up MCR is currently supporting Drywave to build a podcasting and entertainment suite at The Resonance Centre in Clayton which will provide a space to enable local organisations and individuals gain wellness and wellbeing benefits with professional journey coaches who use media, music production, song writing and art as a way to develop strong community leaders.

Drywave hosts inclusive sober music events to enable people to interact with the recovery community in a sociable, no-pressure setting.

They offer personalised guidance on local services and support networks, and inspire recovery by offering enjoyable, culturally relevant sober experiences.

Drywave is planning a huge sober festival this year and is looking for in-kind support from digital promotion specialists and sponsorship from businesses who want to be a part of this exciting project.
