Our Service
At Changing Lives: Ridley Villas, we support women who are in recovery from substance misuse, as well as their children. Our specialist accommodation provides a therapeutic space for women to recover from their addiction and supports families on their own personal journey to gain the skills they need to lead positive, independent lives.
- One-to-one bespoke key work sessions to explore and address any presenting issues
- A safe space for women to identify and explore any trauma they are experiencing and/or have experienced
- Access to our 20-week tailor-made program
- The Stephanie Covington programme: Helping Women Recover
- A level of independence by providing self-contained flats within the service
- Social inclusion via activities held in the evening in the communal areas
You can self-refer by requesting a referral form via the below contact details if you meet the eligibility criteria. Professional referrals are also accepted.
We support women aged 18 and over, as well as their children (who are younger than 10), across Newcastle and Gateshead.
