About us
The programme:
Phase 1: We have a twelve bedroom detox house, commonly referred to as Phase 1. Here residents can detox whilst on methadone, subutex, chlordiazapoxide or a range of other prescribed medications to aid with substance withdrawal. Here residents are expected to work with medical staff to detox and prepare for Phase 2 should the resident successfully complete Phase 1. This programme ranges from 2 weeks to 3 months long.
Phase 2: This part of the programme focuses on the pastoral issues surrounding the addictive lifestyle, including looking at the back to work mentality. During this time residents will be encouraged to reconcile with family, visits facilitated and progress made on core issues by one of our certified counsellors.
Phase 3: For those who have successfully completed a rehabilitation programme, ours or a similar programme in the UK, we offer great accommodation in and around the Loughborough area. These houses have a member of staff living in and space for up to 4 residents. During this time the resident will be encouraged back to work, but realistically the timetable is their own. A regular review takes place every three months to determine the progress a resident is making in Phase 3 and, along with their key worker, new long term objectives are set. Help is never far away though as the live in staff member assists with daily challenges including work place issues and life skills.
Re-offenders: Due to our close working relationship with the police and probation, and in no small part to the further education courses that some residents enrol on, we have found particular success with re-offenders. For those coming out of prison, our centre provides a stable platform for reintegration whilst addressing addiction rehabilitation. This programme includes move on houses with voluntary work available.
Perks: We have found that part of successful rehabilitation is a healthy body as well as a healthy mind. We have a sports programme that uses the local... show more gym 4+ times a week, a 5 a side football team, a scuba diving club and volunteering opportunities that include gardening within the community. This is a great chance to invest in the local community. After a busy day, catch up with other residents in the hot tub onsite or over a game of pool.
Street-2-life: This is a fantastic opportunity for willing residents to sow back into a younger generation by visiting schools and running workshops on substance abuse. This includes working with local youth groups.
Family feel: Our largest centre has 29 bedrooms so there is always a sense of knowing who you live with and who you’re going through the programme with. We recognise that a support network is a necessary tool and so we will also work with clients to help reconcile family relationships. We believe that Christianity provides a firm foundation and ethos to operate under.
Referrals: We take a variety of referrals and no-one is excluded from applying for a place on our programme. Although we are based in Leicestershire, we are able to accommodate referrals nationwide. Application forms and House Rules can be downloaded from our website.
