Henrietta Place Programme

If you are stable on methadone, thinking about detoxing or have already detoxed and want to go on to in-patient therapeutic treatment, this programme will help to prepare you.

It runs four days a week and includes:

  • Addiction education, relapse prevention, recovery group work
  • Care planning
  • One-to-one support
  • Mindfulness, health and fitness
  • Art and social analysis 
  • NA and CA meetings

We also work with your doctor and/or counsellor to help you prepare for detox or residential treatment.

This programme can run for up to six months depending on your individual care plan.

We provide sandwiches each day for lunch.

Drug screening takes place twice a week for all participants.
