“Due to the huge response and success we have invited the Hard Cuddles team back and are working towards having Hard Cuddles present on a regular basis within Reintegration Services and we look forward to seeing what the future brings for James and Hard Cuddles within the Corrections environment as the passion he shows is astounding.”

“Hard Cuddles has truly changed my life, the encouragement, wise words, constant support and loving energy has had such a profound impact on me, while under no illusion I have changed my own life. Having Hard Cuddles as my mentors, my counsellors & most of all my friend has been something so special its beyond words. To give you all an idea of where I was at before meeting James to put it simply I was a full time criminal, it was my job. I was 7 years deep into a daily heavy ice & GHB addiction and my future was not bright, since having Hard Cuddles in my corner I am currently now clean 6 months, at TAFE studying mental health, alcohol & other drugs, have my own place and life is truly going in the complete opposite direction it was less then a year ago.

Thank you so much Hard Cuddles.”

“Hard Cuddles helped my son to help himself and he is now helping other men. An alternative rehabilitation of coming to terms with addiction, with a team that have experienced their own hardships in a supportive, natural and healthy environment. It has enormously changed our family’s life for the better. Contact Hard Cuddles. I hope it will change yours.”
