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.

Take a moment today to think about how far you’ve come. It doesn’t have to be a huge achievement. Sometimes the smallest steps are the ones that take the most courage.

💛 World Suicide Prevention Day

Today, as part of Recovery Month, we’re encouraging everyone to take a moment to think about the people around them.

Sometimes we notice that someone isn’t themselves but don’t know what to say.

Start with a question.

Listen without judgement.

Give them time.

Don’t assume someone else will check in.

You don’t need to have the perfect words.

Sometimes showing someone that they matter is the most important thing you can do.

💛 Let’s keep talking. Let’s keep listening. Let’s keep looking out for one another.

💙 Who do we help?

Addiction doesn't only affect one person.
It can have an impact on partners, parents, children, siblings, friends and the wider family.
At Addictions North East, our support extends beyond the individual. We provide support for people affected by addiction, as well as family members and carers who may also need somewhere to turn.

We know how difficult it can be to watch someone you care about struggle.
Sometimes families need someone to listen to them too.

💙 Recovery can be a journey for more than one person.

☕💙 Celebrating Recovery Month at Sea View Café

Recovery isn’t always about the big moments.

Sometimes it’s the simple things that matter most.

Sitting down with a cuppa.
Having a chat.
Seeing a familiar face.
Having somewhere welcoming to go.
Feeling part of your community.

Sea View Café is part of Addictions North East and provides a space where people can come together, enjoy some food and refreshments and spend time connecting with others.

For someone experiencing isolation, having somewhere they feel welcome can make a real difference.

💙 Sometimes a conversation over a cup of tea can be the beginning of something more.

🌱 A Recovery Month reminder

Looking after yourself isn’t something you have to earn.

Your wellbeing matters today — not just when everything is going well.

Take a break.

Get some fresh air.

Have something to eat.

Talk to somebody.

Do something that makes you feel like yourself.

Recovery is about building a healthier life, and that includes learning to recognise when you need to slow down and look after yourself.

💙 Take care of yourself today.
