About Linwood House | Who We Are and What We Offer
Specialist Addiction Treatment in a Safe, Supportive Environment
Acknowledging that you may be struggling with alcohol or drug dependency is never easy. For many, it takes years of silent suffering, hiding habits from loved ones, battling denial or trying to manage alone. Feelings of fear, shame, or the belief that you should be able to “handle it yourself” often delay the decision to seek help.
At Linwood House, we understand that addiction is not a moral failing or a lack of willpower. It’s a complex, progressive condition that requires specialised care, support, and understanding. Reaching out takes immense courage, and we honour that bravery by offering a safe, structured, and welcoming environment, praised by the CQC for its strong staff leadership and commitment to safety and comfort, where you can begin your recovery free from judgement and everyday pressures.
Whether you’re just beginning to consider treatment or have tried it before, our expert team is here to walk alongside you with compassionate care and professional guidance, helping you take that vital first step toward a healthier, more meaningful life.
