Huseyin Djemil (Bubble)
Ideas Man, Raconteur and Chief Innovator
A person in long-term recovery from addiction and a founding member of Towards Recovery.  An outsider that notices others on the margins and
believes firmly that people in recovery are assets that make our communities stronger.

Huseyin is an intuitive, creative, opportunist who facilitates connection at all levels. He champions diverse, inclusive and accepting environments.

Outside of Towards Recovery, he runs a specialist consultancy, working with a range of organisations within substance use, social care and criminal justice sectors. When not working, he’s a film buff, avid reader and self-confessed daydreamer.

Justin Whitlock
Therapist, Logician and Chief Zen Master

Justin is the one who takes care of us all, reminds us to breathe, and to be aware of ourselves and our surroundings.

A skilled individual and group therapist he is a multi talented companion on all our journeys of discovery. A deep thinker with many hidden talents.

When asked which aisle in a supermarket would best describe Towards Recovery he says, “the fruit and veg aisle because it doesn’t shout buy me, it’s just good for you”.

A family man, guitar player, singer, runner and is fuelled by plants.

Michelle Djemil (Shelley)
Administrator, Number Cruncher and Chief Baker

Wife of Huseyin, and the stable core of Towards Recovery, Shelley firmly dots ours collective i’s and crosses our t’s – simultaneously number crunching and baking up a storm without ever breaking a sweat. Outside of Towards Recovery, she is a self-employed qualified management accountant and eBayer.

You can find her out in the rain, walking the dog (when he decides he will leave the boot of the car), and at the crafts table getting creative with anything that requires sticking, glueing, sewing and painting.

Jasmine Plowright
Marketer, Spreadsheet Enthusiast, Chief Organiser

Brand guardian and behind the scenes / screens operative. Jasmine is Marketing Consultant and Programme Director who thrives on big, migraine-inducing projects. She loves nothing better than finding a solution that works and always has a trusted spreadsheet or virtual list in the background to keep us on track.

Outside of work, this Mum of two keeps busy with various charitable and community projects, playing the piano (badly), cooking for the masses, discovering lesser known London gems and escaping to Cornwall for beach time with the family.
