Addictions North East is a Registered Charity. We seek to promote the prevention, recognition and treatment of problems related to the use of alcohol, drugs, related substances and other addictions, through offering advice, information, support and counselling. Our volunteers and staff are available to support groups and individuals facing the wider issues of addiction.

We can advise on drug rehabilitation (rehab) and help with addiction to alcohol and other drugs, and all sorts of abuses and dependency. Programmes are abstinence-based but, as they do not require residential rehabilitation, allow clients to continue their usual activities while finding the route to normal living.

Addiction may come from drug abuse, alcoholism, dependency on cannabis, cocaine, amphetamines, sex and pornography, the internet or shopping and spending. When your habit dominates your daily and life and you feel powerless to regain control, we will be able to develop a programme to help you, your family and your carers. We use such methods as detox, the 12 steps programme, cognitive behavioural therapy, counselling, peer support, coping strategies, drug rehabilitation and coaching as well as teaching.

Addicitions North East offers confidential, affordable and effective help to addicts and their carers across our region and beyond.
