read moreA distinctive aspect of our programme and one that makes us different from many others is our optional Family Service. It is now universally accepted that the wider family and friends network also needs to be considered as part of an individual's recovery from addiction. Current research strongly indicates there are better outcomes for all if the family / significant others are included in the treatment of the individual. Addiction has an impact on the physical and psychological health of the wider family/friends network and the staff team at Littledale has strongly supported and witnessed the benefits of a family/friends inclusive approach to the treatment and recovery of residents.

The model at Littledale has evolved through a combination of 25 years' experience of developing services and our innovative neuro-bio-psycho-social model. This model addresses all the key elements associated to an individual's addiction. The model offers each resident an opportunity to develop a greater understanding and insight into the complexities of their addiction and associated life experiences.

The stages provide opportunities to practice revised ways of managing behaviours as well as other essential life skills such as physical and psychological wellbeing, relationships, finance, housing and education. Additionally, support is given to access meaningful activities post treatment to establish a renewed sense of purpose as people make the transition back into mainstream society.
