Teen Challenge UK is a Christian Charity that is working in various ways to put hope within reach of those trapped in addiction. They work with epople of all ages.

They believe it is possible for men and women to break free from addiction and live fulfilling lives as contributing members of society and they have seen hundreds make the transition from addiction to freedom

They have 6 residential facilities throughout the UK which offer supported accommodation to those who want to break free from the debilitating lifestyle that addiction brings. The residential programme runs for 11 months and is designed to aid individuals identifying and addressing the core issues that drove their addiction.

Each person agrees to tailorred support plan and works with a dedicated advisor. They engage in classes that follow a curriculum specifically designed to aid transformation. They are also provided with a work programme and taught key life skills. 

After Care 

Following successful completion of the residential stage we try to assist those moving on into education, training or employment. They have a number of facilities that seek to provide ongoing training for those who believe this will be most beneficial to them.
