With a combination of compassionate care and effective treatment, we can support you to a more positive future by no longer being physically dependent on a substance.
When you undertake a detox, the focus is to improve physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing so your long-term recovery can be achieved. While detox can be challenging, our professional team are on hand 24/7 to support. They’ll manage your withdrawal symptoms and help give you confidence in taking the next step.

Our recovery orientated service
Our approach is very centred around the needs of each individual but typically, alcohol detoxes are 7 days and opiate detoxes are 21 days, with detoxes for other substances and respite from regular use of other non-addictive substances also being available.
To ensure that withdrawal symptoms are managed effectively, the units are staffed by Mental Health Nurses and Support Workers 24 hours a day.
With symptoms being managed, a key aspect of recovery is in discovering who you are now and who you want to become. Peer Mentors and volunteers ensure there are also activities aimed at creating a support network, building independence, and growing confidence for ongoing recovery.
94% of our regulated services are rated Good or Outstanding by the CQC.
