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

Behind this door is a place where recovery can begin, continue and grow.

Our Recovery Centre provides a welcoming space where people can access support, connect with others and take positive steps towards a different future.

Recovery isn’t about having everything figured out before you walk through the door.

It can start with a conversation.

It can start with asking a question.

It can start with simply deciding that you don’t want things to stay the same.

Throughout Recovery Month, we’re celebrating the people who take those steps — whether they’re just beginning their journey or have been working towards recovery for years.

💙 Sometimes opening the door is the first step.

🧠 Celebrating Recovery Month

Recovery isn’t just about addiction.

Mental health matters too.

Understanding your emotions, learning healthier ways to cope, building confidence and knowing when to ask for support can all be important parts of recovery.

You don’t have to choose between looking after your recovery and looking after your mental health.

💙 They belong in the same conversation.

Sunday reminder: Be proud of the progress that nobody else sees. The conversations you've had with yourself, the temptations you've walked away from, the boundaries you've created, the help you've asked for and the days you've simply managed to keep going. Not every victory needs to be visible to everyone else. Some of the biggest achievements in recovery happen quietly. 💙

💙 Celebrating Recovery Month

Recovery can feel very lonely when you believe nobody understands.

Connection can change that.

A familiar face.
A conversation.
A group.
A shared experience.
A place where you feel welcome.

Our community spaces and activities provide opportunities for people to connect, build relationships and feel part of something.

💙 Sometimes finding connection is an important part of finding your way forward.

💙 You can know that something needs to change and still feel frightened about taking that first step.

You might wonder what people will think.

You might be worried about what happens next.

You might tell yourself that your problem isn’t “bad enough”.

You might think you should be able to stop on your own.

But asking for help isn’t admitting defeat.

It’s recognising that you want something different.

You don’t have to have everything worked out before you reach out.
