Drugs & alcohol support in Gateshead

Your recovery journey in Gateshead

At Recovery Connections, we bring Lived Experience of addiction and recovery to all our work. So, when you find and meet with us, you are speaking to people who fully understand what you’re going through. Our Recovery Coaches have often been in the same position as you, looking for help, and unsure of how to find the right support and if it will work.

But now, they help other people discover their personal journey of recovery. And this is exactly what we want for you, or the person you’re concerned about. A compassionate, empathetic and person-centred approach to guiding someone from struggling with alcohol, or drugs, into a recovery of their own choosing, and a more fulfilling life.

Find us in multiple areas of town
