Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centres in Cambridge
Drug and Alcohol Rehab Cambridge
According to Public Health England, a massive 79% of people in Cambridgeshire who currently need treatment for drug or alcohol abuse have these needs unmet.
Here we will provide you with more information about how drug and alcohol rehabilitation works and how to get treatment.
It is possible to stop taking substances without support, but your chances of successfully ending your addiction are much higher with professional help. It is also far safer for your health, as giving up drugs and alcohol quickly can present a serious medical risk.
Local Addiction Support in Cambridgeshire
Most people are referred to a local rehab clinic by a GP in Cambridge. These services are often free and provided by NHS local services on an outpatient basis.
Others choose to research local centres themselves by Googling “drug and alcohol rehab near me”. Some employers are also willing to help by using their private medical health insurance policies to fund private treatment.
Outpatient Treatment
Most free services available through the NHS are administered as an outpatient. This means you will visit a centre for drug substitution and therapy, but recovery will largely be attempted at home with the help of friends, family and other community resources.
If you have tried this approach and keep relapsing or have failed to keep up with the programme, the next more intensive option is a prolonged stay in a dedicated rehab centre.
Residential Rehab
In our residential rehab you will live here for a period of weeks. Here, you will not have access to drugs or alcohol and be fully monitored through a detoxification period. After this, you will complete a range of therapies that reduce relapse rates and help you clear your mind after what could potentially be years of substance abuse.
Our Cambridge rehabilitation centre is here to support you around the clock every day of the year. Our team of committed rehab professionals can help you start a new life free from addiction.

Inside Our Rehab
When you stay in our CQC rehab centre, you will benefit from 24/7 support from Doctors, Mental Health Specialists, Counselors, Support Workers, and even an on-site chef.
Drugs Addictions We Treat
We treat all kinds of drug addictions in our rehab centre and have a very experienced team to deal with the destabilising nature addiction can have on both your physical and mental health. Our rehab treats all common addictions such as Alcohol and cocaine addiction in addition to Heroin, Cannabis, Crytal Meth and Prescription drug addictions.
Alcohol Addiction Treatment
A large proportion of our visitors are suffering from Alcohol dependency. Our team understand the challenges you face and the difficulties going through withdrawal from such an addictive substance.
Many people who regularly join our group sessions are recovering alcoholics, and you will hear stories and also learn from your peers how they have effectively managed to overcome alcohol addiction.
The most significant benefit of completing your alcohol rehabilitation in our centre is due to the detox period. Alcohol can have a very challenging detox period with nasty side effects such as sickness, delirium, and tremors and often leave people psychologically in an awful state.
We will be here to support you with counselling and medication during this period. You will also be under complete observation as we help guide you.
Cocaine Addiction Treatment
Cocaine is highly addictive, and many of our patients do need rehab treatment as the chances of relapse are incredibly high, especially if you are surrounded by cocaine through your network of friends in the community.
Cocaine addiction brings a strong psychological response, and it can be beaten with the help of our onsite mental health specialists. We tailor rehab programmes based on each individual as each person has their own story. What might be beneficial for others might not be best for you.
In treating cocaine addiction, your detox period will also be accompanied by intensive therapy from trained psychologists with a proven record of helping people overcome cocaine addiction. As a QCC-registered facility, we provide the best care for people looking to overcome addiction to such drugs as cocaine.

I can't rate Cassiobury Court residential clinic more highly! My 14 day stay (after two previous stays at different clinics) was amazing - constructive, enlightening and enjoyable. My positive experience flowed through right from the very start of the process with my telephone conversations with the admissions team, and once we'd had an initial chat and an assessment, they arranged for a driver to pick me up at 10 o'clock the next morning to drive me the 140 miles from West Dorset to the clinic. The staff were incredibly welcoming, caring and non-judgmental. I was able to start my detox only an hour or so after my arrival after having a Zoom call with the Doctor. From then on the medical team were always on hand if and when necessary. A high ratio of the staff are in recovery themselves which means that they knew personally what I was going through, which was both comforting and motivating. My room was clean, light and bright and I had everything that I needed. The food was of a very high standard and the chef was flexible and willing to go that extra mile for any special requests. The group sessions were varied, interesting and run by highly knowledgeable staff. These were backed up by excellent 1-1 sessions with my allocated key worker and allocated therapist. I can't stress enough how much new information I learnt in just 14 days. I have left Cassiobury Court with a renewed determination to start working the 12 step programme and to do what I'm told - as the people who have been giving me this advice are proof to me that I too can change my life for the better as they have. A huge thank you to you all! Jennie

It’s a pleasure to have been a client at Cassiobury Court. From the moment I arrived I felt like a welcome part of the family, it’s non judgmental and compassionate approach to recovery has differed from any center which I have previously attended. The structure allowed me to develop at my own pace and to work through my recovery journey, which started with me at an all time low. When I entered I was a shell of a person, after a toxic relationship. My substance misuse and eating disorder was out of control and my health, mental and physical, was deteriorating rapidly. The staff, each with there own expertise and experience guided me compassionately and from a genuine place of kindness and warmth. The facilities, all departments from housekeeping, kitchen to admin and support staff, have made a genuine difference to the person I am leaving as. Strong, rebuilt and confident. Ready to step into a life of sobriety and positivity. I have made life long friends and made life long changes thanks to Cassiobury. I can genuinely recommend Cassiobury, to anyone who has found themselves in the depths of there addiction, they will help you find the path out, however unmanageable life may seem. All my love to the team there and to the clients past, present and future Amy x

I am Sam and I arrived at Cassiobury Court for 28 days at the end of May. This was my second rehab experience. I cannot praise Cassiobury Court enough. Each day was well structured and every group session was designed to give you different tools to sobriety. I learnt so much from all the therapists and key workers that were taking the sessions due to my lack of understanding of this illness. I was in a place where I was made to feel comfortable and no question were silly which encouraged me to dig deeper and ask questions around my illness and myrecovery. Cassiobury Court approach to recovery, worked very well for me. It was not like Boot Camp. They actually gave me time to digest the information that was given and time to absorb what was said they kind of gave me the balance to learn, but also do every day life things, I also had time to reflect and focus on myself I would encourage any newcomers to rehab to engage in many group sessions as they can and take out as much as they can out of these sessions the 12 step AA program was explained to me in such a simple way and gave me the confidence to work it. I would like to give a special thanks to my key worker as she has helped me find a a new sober, Sam. My key worker from the start has been open and honest which has helped me with my recovery. I would like to also thank all the staff at Cassiobury Court that have had an impact on my road to recovery. A special thanks to the kitchen staff and the cleaning staff, as by them doing what they do gave me time to focus on myself and not have to worry about cooking and cleaning. The kitchen staff have made sure that I have been eating properly and have helped me build up my strength. Overall, Cassiobury Court is the place to come to if in need of a medical detox or need to understand what is involved in recovery and give you the opportunity on how to get away from addiction It’s like being given a second sober life. I cannot thank Cassiobury Court enough.

As good as it gets for rehab. The staff are hard-working and caring. You get a nice blend of help and social (sober) interaction. They allow as much freedom as you can handle and mix a healthy blend of learning with the freedom to do as you please and not force any narratives.

Id like to thank everyone at Cassiobury Court and I mean everyone, nobody excluded, who helped me with my recovery. I was always treated with love and respect. Everyone is helpful, kind and always very professional with a great sense of humour This is the most wonderful place, I was so scared and afraid on my first day but within hours I found myself laughing and feeling safe - I just knew I was in the right place. The staff are simply out of this world. The location is peaceful, beautiful and the accommodation/food excellent My journey at Cassiobury helped me get on the right side of the road, I stayed focused and happy to say - today I'm still sober Today I can start living "one day at a time", they have given me a new life filled with hope, peace and love. Ive never felt happier Jo

I have just finished up my treatment at Cassiobury Court which is my 2nd in two years. Initially I had gone for only 2 weeks but did 21 days (28 days is still recommended). The staff was absolutely incredibly; knowledgable, supportive, organised and REAL. Addiction is a serious disease and if you are serious about recovery and want to live a strong, healthier, more spiritual and joyful life - you should admit you are powerlessness and get the support from Cassiobury Court. The programs are incredibly valuable in group settings to hear other like experiences with the addition of private `Step (1-3) work and therapy sessions with professionals. If you are looking at this review, it means you are looking for help. Get here, get sober, find your new life starting at Cassiobury Court.
How Can I Tell If I’m Living With an Addiction?
Am I living with a drug addiction? The fact that you are here now shows you are willing to make a change, and this is a very good sign. It’s also important to understand that drug addiction is an illness, not something you have chosen or should feel guilty about.
Drugs are chemically formulated to get you hooked, and this is the reason why so many people ask for support with drug addiction. You are not alone.
Drugs have an incredibly powerful effect on the way our bodies and brains function. Over time, people can become so physically and emotionally dependent on drugs that attempting to stop can produce unbearable symptoms.
The only way to feel better is to take the drug again to overcome the withdrawal symptoms.
By this point, a patient has become addicted. Taking the drug they’ve been experiencing violent physical cravings for instantly makes them feel comfortable and euphoric and this is why it is such a hard habit to break.

How Does Drug and Alcohol Rehab in Cambridge Work?
You’re probably wondering exactly what happens in a Cambridge rehab centre. The very first thing you need to know is that it’s going to be demanding, both physically and emotionally, and you need to be ready to commit to giving up no matter how hard you find it.
When you join us here at our Cambridge clinic, you will be required to stay residentially for 28 days. During that period, you will undertake an Alcohol detox programme, which can take up to two weeks, depending on how severe your substance addiction has become.
At no point during this process should you take drugs because the only way your recovery can happen is if they are completely out of your system.
This stage of the process is extremely challenging, and you will need 24/7 supervision by our medical team here in Cambridge. To ease the pain of your withdrawal, they may offer you prescription medication.
This is just the start of your road to recovery. Following the Detox phase, you will be able to receive support from us for as long as you need it – both residentially here at our Cambridge clinic and after you return home.
Our aim is to help you become permanently drug or alcohol-free, so we will teach you a range of coping strategies to help you deal with life without ever needing to take drugs again.
How Long are Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programmes?
Although your rehab program will start with a 28-day residential with our team here in Cambridge, that’s only the start. So, how long does drug rehab last?
This is actually a difficult question to answer because it all depends on the individual. Drug addiction therapy is always person-centred, so what works quickly for one person might take longer for another.
As our treatment is inpatient and takes 28 days, we advise you to let your close family members and friends know that you might be unavailable for a while. Arranging some time off with your employer is also important.
Once you are ready, we can pick you up from your home in Cambridge and transport you to our facility.
Is There Free Help for Addiction?
Yes, if private rehab isn’t for you, don’t worry, you won’t be left to fight the battle alone there are certainly other routes to get the help you need. Two of the most common and popular meetings are DA and AA meetings, below you can find ones local to you in Cambridge.

FAQ's
Many people ask us, “Is rehab free?” Unfortunately, it isn’t however there are several private health insurance policies that will pay out on drug rehab so it’s a good idea to speak to your employer or insurance company to see if you are covered. The policy may pay for treatment here at our Cambridge clinic.
Many patients ask us “How much is rehab in Cambridge?” when they first come to see us. Even if you think the cost is beyond your reach, it’s important that you talk to us because we might be able to signpost you to another service who can help.
The UK does not have any specific NHS drug and alcohol rehab clinics. When an NHS patient is referred for addiction treatment, it is to a private clinic like ours in Cambridge. Please be aware that NHS waiting lists are very long, and the criteria is very strict so there is no guarantee you will be seen.
