How we can help you
We provide free and confidential drug and alcohol services in Coventry.
Above all else, we believe in people. It's the one thing that acts as a foundation for all our work.
If you use our services: we understand what you're going through. We won't judge. We believe you can make positive changes in your life.

Your first visit
When you arrive, book in at our main reception desk so we can let a member of our team know you have arrived.
Whilst in reception please help yourself to water and browse our leaflets and posters. You can also take a seat within our Recovery Café; Simon’s Café, where you can get a free hot drink.
During your first appointment, our team will take the time to understand your situation and listen to you. Then they'll discuss the kind of treatment that might suit you.
We know this can be daunting, so please feel free to invite someone you trust if this makes you feel more comfortable.
