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.

🌱🐓 A lovely afternoon with our Stage 4 group at the allotment, enjoying some Social Therapeutic Horticulture 💚

Today’s session was all about slowing down, connecting with nature, and enjoying the simple things. From watering the flowers and tending the garden to spending time with our friendly chickens, every activity helps build confidence, reduce stress, and improve wellbeing.

It’s amazing what can grow when people are given the time, space, and support to flourish. 🌼

Recovery isn’t just about moving forward—it’s about finding purpose, routine, and joy in everyday moments.

A fantastic afternoon spent outdoors with a fantastic group. 🌿💚

A year ago today, I made a choice that completely changed my life.Today, I look at the version of me on the left with a lot of kindness, because they survived what they needed to so that the person on the right could exis and finally love herself💗.Reaching this milestone is a testament to the power of connection and community. I am only here because of the love of my family, the light of my three beautiful daughters,my amazing grandchildren who make me smile every single day and the constant support of my friends.

Thank you to my sponsors and my recovery fellowships for always keeping the doors open.A Huge pieces of my heart and gratitude belong to Addictions North East,this life saving treatment center, for giving me the foundation to change and rebuild my life and to city Church Newcastle for being a safe place of faith and belonging,🙏

Sobriety didn't fix every problem overnight, but it
gave me the strength to face them, one day at a time.i am incredibly proud of this year, and the woman i have become, so thankful for everyone who helped me get here.❤️

🌳☀️ Fresh air, great company, and plenty of smiles! 💚

Recovery isn’t just about overcoming challenges—it’s about creating new memories, building friendships, and finding joy in life’s simple moments. Sometimes the best therapy is a walk in the woods, a laugh with friends, and a reminder that none of us have to do life alone.

Here’s to more days like this!

🌿 Sometimes the best connection isn’t to your phone—it’s to nature, yourself, and the people around you. 🌳🤍

We swapped notifications for birdsong, screens for scenery, and busy minds for peaceful moments at the beautiful Finchale Priory.

Out here, the signal is low… but the connection is high. 💚

Taking time to slow down, breathe, and appreciate the world around us is an important part of looking after our wellbeing.

The person you were in survival mode deserves compassion, not criticism. Be proud of how far you’ve come, even if you’re still finding your way. 🤍
