Drug Addiction Recovery Group Kirkby

Hello Kirkby!
Welcome to What We Think — a drug addiction recovery group serving the Kirkby area.
We run weekly face-to-face meetings in the Kirkby area, led by our experienced support team, complemented by ongoing out-of-meeting support from dedicated volunteers — all of whom have completed the programme and bring lived experience. Members also have access to an exclusive section of our website, packed with downloadable materials, videos, and guides.
We are committed to helping you, or a loved one, overcome addiction to drugs. While every journey is unique, our 12-week programme has a strong track record of success — with the option to extend for a further 12 weeks if needed.
What sets our programme apart is our commitment to supporting the whole family. We recognise that those living with a loved one who is drug dependent face their own significant challenges.
Our monthly family support group provides a safe space to share experiences, develop coping strategies, and access practical tools to help navigate life alongside a loved one in recovery.

OUR PROGRAMME
Our drug recovery programme covers Kirkby and the wider area. We support people with small weekly face-to-face groups and additional support via our team of volunteers over 12 weeks, with an optional further 12 weeks if you need it.
We work towards successful drug addiction recovery, providing safe, practical, and person-centred support to individuals and families who need stability, clarity, and a way forward in the Kirkby area.
Our work is informed by both professional practice and lived experience of drug addiction recovery. We understand that poor mental health and drug addiction are often deeply connected.
Rather than treating people in isolation or through a single lens, we take a whole-person, trauma-informed approach, recognising emotional safety, personal dignity, and long-term recovery as essential foundations for change.
