Recovery Centre, St. Helens
The Recovery Centre is a positive, vibrant and Recovery-focused environment, somewhere where people feel safe and welcome; part of a community of people in Recovery. It is somewhere where you will be listened to, respected and valued, as well as challenged. We offer a Structured Day Programme, made of of groups, meetings, holistic therapies, meditation, sports, art and music therapy that support you in addressing your substance use and making positive changes in your life, growing, healing and recovering together.
This centre is open to anyone who wants Recovery, is motivated do some work on themselves and is reducing their substance use. We are part of the Addaction service in St. Helens.
