I cannot thank The Providence Projects enough for saving my life. I was unable to handle my addiction myself and since my time there, my life has completely changed. The staff are incredible and the work they do is outstanding. I would recommend the centre to anyone struggling with any type of addiction. They have completely eradicated my old negative habits.

Our Journey: From Addiction to Advocacy
Providence Projects began with a vision. After overcoming a 30-year struggle with addiction, Steve Spiegel recognised the need for a treatment programme that didn’t just focus on short-term recovery but prepared individuals for lasting change.
Drawing from both his personal and professional experience as a counsellor, Steve dreamed of creating a centre that bridged the gap between treatment and long-term success.
By chance, Steve met Dr Peter Turnbull, one of the UK’s leading addiction specialists. Sharing a deep commitment to evidence-based care and a holistic approach to recovery, their collaboration gave life to Providence Projects—a centre that has since helped over 10,000 people reclaim their lives.
OUR MISSION
To empower individuals to overcome addiction, rebuild their lives, and achieve lasting recovery through affordable and accessible care.
We understand that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all journey. That’s why we combine evidence-based treatments with tailored support, ensuring each client receives the personalised care they deserve.
OUR APPROACH
Recovery Designed for You
Every person’s story is unique, and so is their recovery. From the moment you reach out to us, our team works to understand your needs and your history to create a programme that focuses on both the root causes of addiction and the tools to build a fulfilling future.
OUR APPROACH
Holistic Healing
Our comprehensive programme includes:
- Personalised detox plans supervised by experienced medical staff.
- Group and one-on-one therapy sessions led by highly skilled professionals.
- Alternative therapies such as mindfulness, music therapy, and acupuncture.
- Family therapy to help rebuild trust and relationships.
- Fun and engaging activities like beach walks, boxercise, and community outings.
I had been to three other residential rehab centres but Providence Projects was perfect. I had a life changing experience there.

Every step of my daughters journey, from us delivering her to the clinic to picking her up was amazing! She’s now seven months sober .and definitely could not have done it without the Providence project. I cannot recommend this place enough! Everyone at The Providence project really seemed to care and not that it’s just a job Thank you so so much Paul and everyone there for saving my daughters life. 😍

Nobody wants to go to rehab right? Especially not again but I can honestly say that from the moment I arrived at the provi I just knew it was going to be ok. Instantly I felt understood, safe, loved, supported and most importantly not alone. You are not just another problem on a conveyor belt being churned in and spat out. You are you, everyone there wants you to find the real and better, beautiful and happy you. Every member of staff takes so much interest and is so eager to help its infectious. They are a truly wonderful team who together are offering the greatest gift in the world – life and I will always be forever grateful 🙏

I fell into the Provvy in Jan 2013. My life had no direction, it was very dark & I had no hope left. My whole being revolved around alcohol.
The guys at the Provvy taught me a new way to live a day at a time. I haven’t had to take a drink since that day 9th Jan 2013.
I will forever be grateful to all the team there. They showed me so much patience,time & unconditional love. I left after 3 months with some hope & direction to build on. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Providence Projects. Absolute angels.

Went into the Provy a drunk, was at my lowest, depressed, crap mother, a shell of the person I once was. I was so welcomed straight away by all the amazing staff and peers. The programme works if you want it. I left sober, confident and positive, the old Jenny back. Best decision ever made. Could not recommend it enough. I love the provy crew!! Taught me the skills and tools to deal with this illness and loving life.

My daughter went to Provy in August 2022 and left there six weeks later. I just knew when searching rehabs that this was the one. It took a long time to get her to realise that she desperately needed help. She gave it everything , bonding with fellow patients, and the staff who were incredible. I seem to cry more now for being so grateful to Provy that she has just completed 2 years sober. It works if you really believe and I as a mum could not be happier than to see my daughter living her best life. Thank you Provy x
