A Leeds man has spoken of his incredible road to recovery as he celebrated 50 days sober and off the streets by completing the Total Warrior challenge in Leeds.
In February this year, Peter Higgins was homeless on the streets of Leeds, trapped in a cycle of addiction and declining mental health. At his lowest, Peter says he tried to take his own life multiple times after losing everything to drink and drugs.
After finding support through St George's Crypt and the Growing Rooms, Peter, 47, is now hoping he has brought a permanent end to his struggles and celebrated 50 days clean with an incredible challenge. He is now hoping he can use his story to inspire others to take the first steps and ask for help and is also raising money for a children's charity.
