Recovered Living NZ offers their services at a true cost point however we recognize that world class eating disorder care comes at a price most New Zealanders are unable to afford.  

The Recovered Living NZ Charitable Trust exists to help offset the cost of Recovered Living NZ services, making recovery more affordable, for more New Zealanders.
