RECONNECT MOVEMENT

You Are Not Alone


Move. Play. Connect.

Reconnect Movement is a community for anyone rebuilding their life — from addiction, mental health challenges, loneliness, burnout, or simply feeling disconnected.

We bring people together through simple sports, fun games, movement, and genuine human connection.
No pressure. No judgment. No expectations.
Just people supporting people.

Who We Are

Reconnect Movement is a safe, alcohol-free, addiction-free, family-friendly community designed to support people through connection, movement, and belonging.

We’re here for anyone:

  • families, friends and loved ones

  • people overcoming addiction (any kind)

  • managing mental ill health

  • feeling isolated or lonely

  • rebuilding confidence and identity

  • seeking healthier ways to spend their free time

  • wanting a community without judgement, pressure, or expectations

This is not counselling.
This is not therapy.
This is not a meeting.

This is community, sunlight, movement, laughter, and connection

What We Do

We host regular community days where people can join in:

  • Simple sports

  • Fun games

  • Team activities


  • Family-friendly games

  • Outdoor movement

  • Mental-wellbeing-oriented social spaces

Everything is optional.
Some people come to play.
Some come to talk.
Some come just to be around people.

Everyone belongs.

Why We Exist

Because too many people struggle alone.

Addiction. Anxiety. Depression.
Identity loss. Burnout. Loneliness.

Feeling stuck. Feeling invisible.
Feeling like you’re “just existing.”

We’re here to offer what so many people crave and rarely find: a positive, safe space to reconnect with life.

Movement helps. Community helps. Connection heals.

We’re not trying to fix people.

We’re helping people feel human again.


My Story

About Lucas — Founder of Reconnect Movement

My name is Lucas Forbes, and after six years of sobriety, I realised something powerful: People don’t just need treatment.

People don’t just need meetings. People need connection.

They need laughter. They need movement. They need simple human interaction.

They need to feel like they belong somewhere.
They need a place where they don’t have to explain themselves.

During my own journey with addiction, mental health, and rebuilding my life, I often felt like I was just existing — not living.
I felt disconnected, even when surrounded by people.

That’s why I created Reconnect Movement: to build the space I wish I had.

A space for people like me — and people nothing like me.
To feel supported, welcome, and never alone.

A place where my family and friends can feel supported.

I’m not a clinician. I’m not here to diagnose or treat.

I’m here because I’ve lived it.
And I believe in what’s possible for people when they Reconnect.
