Travelling for Residential Treatment
For many people, accessing treatment outside London creates the space needed to focus fully on recovery. Travelling a short distance provides separation from the routines and environments that have sustained substance use, while still remaining within reach of family where appropriate.
Close enough for family to visit. Far enough to make a real difference.
