Addiction Recovery Support From The Experts

We provide expert-led home detox and recovery services for individuals battling addiction, as well as accredited training for addiction support professionals.

Who are Addictions UK?

We use medically qualified staff located throughout the UK who are supported by accredited counsellors

Addictions UK was established by a group of recovering addicts, alcoholics and carers in 2002. Our aim and purpose is to bring recovery to others, especially by means of home-based treatment.

All our programmes are abstinence-based. Most do not require residential rehabilitation and so allow clients to continue their usual activities while finding the route to normal living.

The range of our services is very wide and does include arrangements for Residential Rehab for clients to whom we recommend it. We also offer other opportunities for recovery and growth such as learning and spiritual journeys overseas.

We also offer training and employers’ support

We think better education around addiction and how to manage it is of the utmost importance.

We offer a suite of training courses over at Addictions Training which are intended for use by practitioners and carers in addiction therapy and mental health.

The training courses are affordable, flexible and accredited by the Open College Network to levels three and four.

They’re the perfect launchpad for a career in addiction and mental health, and many of the people we have helped overcome addiction have gone on to take our courses and transition into this career path.

We also offer employers’ support services to provide guidance to HR departments when dealing with employees with addiction issues.

🌱 Celebrating Recovery Month

Recovery means learning to look after yourself too.

That can mean getting enough sleep.

Eating properly.

Taking time away from stressful situations.

Setting boundaries.

Going for a walk.

Talking when things become difficult.

Or simply giving yourself permission to rest.

Self-care doesn’t have to be complicated.

💙 The person you’re rebuilding your life for deserves care too.

Sunday reminder: You don't have to have everything figured out before you can move forward. Recovery is built one day, one decision and sometimes one hour at a time. If this week has been difficult, don't let one hard day convince you that you've failed. Take a breath, give yourself some credit for how far you've already come and remember that tomorrow gives you another opportunity to try again. đź’™

🏡 Celebrating Recovery Month

It’s difficult to focus on recovery when everything around you feels unstable.

Having somewhere safe to live can provide the foundation someone needs to begin making other changes.

Our supported housing provides people with accommodation alongside support designed to help develop independence, routine, stability and life skills.

Recovery doesn’t happen overnight.

Sometimes the first step is creating a safe place from which change can begin.

đź’™ Stability can create space for a very different future.

Recovery isn’t just appointments, programmes and difficult conversations.

It’s also about living.

Getting out for the day.

Trying something new.

Laughing with friends.

Enjoying a meal.

Making memories.

Having something to look forward to.

For people who have spent years with addiction controlling their lives, these ordinary experiences can become incredibly important.
