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.

News
The lights are twinkling, soft and bright,
Snow drifts quietly in the night.
The world may sip and raise a cheer,
But I sit calm, my mind is clear.
No fog of drink, no fleeting haze,
Just quiet peace to fill these days.
I breathe in deep, I feel the calm,
A steady heart, a healing balm.
Each ornament, each sparkling tree,
Reminds me of who I strive to be.
A life of choice, of hope, of care,
A heart that’s present, free to share.
I toast with warmth, not wine or ale,
My strength intact, I will prevail.
Tonight I gift myself the grace,
To face the world with sober space.
So here I sit on Christmas Eve,
In gentle joy, I dare believe:
That peace and love, both near and far,
Are mine to hold, just as they are.
✨💛🌿

Today I am 9 months sober! Someone who was in denial for years to admit I was an alcoholic. A broken shell of a man with no gratitude for anyone or anything. Thought the world owed me something. Thought it could never happen to me. But how wrong I was. Homeless and helpless with nothing apart from my bottle of Gin.
In just 9 months my life has dramatically changed since cutting alcohol out of my life. I feel human again, I can process my emotions without numbing them. I feel spiritually well with no anger boiling inside me without any answers for it. I feel heard and understood by having a greater understanding for my disease of Addiction. I'm more happy, healthy and humble! 🙏🏼
Reaching out for help isn't sad or weak, it's the best and strongest thing you'll ever do for yourself! 💪🏼🙏🏼❤️
Leaving early isn’t rude — it’s responsible.
Your wellbeing comes first.

"Ill just like to show my gratitude for addictions north east for showing me a new way of life and that there is a solution out there as before I walked through these doors I thought I was gunna die alone with no family around me because I’d hurt them so much but since coming into recovery I feel alive again and want to better myself every day and the things I lost through addiction such as friendships with my true friends who only wanted the best for me but I forced myself away because I was so embarrassed to look them in the eye I’ve got back in my life in such a short space of time and I’ve got a really strong relationship with my brothers and sister again and I’m a present uncle today to my beautiful nieces and nephews and a present loving son who phones home because I genuinely care how they are instead of ringing pretending to be nice when all I really wanted was to get money out of them for my selfish gains and I’ve changed so much in so little time and I’ve never been this happy so if anyone wants to change and get away from that horrid lifestyle just ring this wonderful place or drop me a message and I could help you on how I got to where I am today and it will be totally confidential too there is help out there just reach out honest it’s the best decision you’ll ever make"
