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.

Drug & Alcohol Rehab Plymouth
At Providence Projects, we understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help. Whether you’re struggling with alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both, taking that first step towards recovery can feel overwhelming.

Drug & Alcohol Abuse in Plymouth
Like many areas across the South West, Plymouth has been deeply affected by drug and alcohol misuse. According to Plymouth City Council, the city reports higher-than-average rates of opiate and crack cocaine use, alongside a rise in drug-related hospital admissions and fatalities.
- 61% of Plymouth’s opiate and crack users are in treatment, significantly higher than the national average of 50%.
- The treatment population is typically older and more complex, with a higher likelihood of injecting drug use.
- Alcohol dependency rates are also a growing concern, with hospital admissions for alcohol-related conditions consistently above the national average.

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
