New Chapters provides much-needed affordable drug and alcohol recovery for people in Leamington Spa and the surrounding area.

We need to raise £100,000 each year to provide the quality, long-term support people need to recover from addiction.

Residents’ Experiences

“Before coming into NC I was broken, I had lost everything in my life to addiction, including my home, and my children. I have been given the tools to love myself again, to feel happiness and peace, the work that we do on ourselves in NC is intense but absolutely needed, it helps you to understand why we use the way we do and why we cant stop, even for our loved ones. I now have a life worth living, I am a mum, daughter, sister, grandmother and a friend. Thank you NC for loving me until I could love myself.”

“NC has given me my life back and taught me how to live, my daughters now have a present, loving, honest mum back in their lives and it was NC that made this possible. I am forever grateful to NC for helping me to love myself again.”

“Before coming into NC my life was one of isolation and addiction had completely taken over, drugs were the only thing that made it painless. Since coming into NC I now have freedom from within, the pain is less, something I have never experienced. I am now present for others, I turn up for my parents and they now have peace of mind and do not worry about me anymore, their whole life was consumed with mine and they too have freedom to live theirs the way they deserve too without worrying about me.”

“NC gave me the space and relief that I needed to get away from reality and the stresses of life in order to focus on fully getting well from my addiction. NC taught me how to understand the disease of addiction, I addressed my traumas, found out about my character defects and how all this impacted and damaged not just myself but everyone around me. I was supported with getting my finances in order, I learnt how to budget, and my physical and mental wellbeing improved through learning about who I am and walking out with new social and life skills. I was shown tough love, something that was needed as anyone who gave me what I wanted I just manipulated to get what I wanted with no concern for how they feel. Since leaving NC my life has completed changed, I have my children back in my life, my family trusts me again and I am training to be an electrician. I am so grateful to NC, before my time there I was in so much pain inside and full of hostility and anger, I now know what freedom, joy and peace feel like, I have a beautiful life today. Thank you NC for all that you do and continue to do.”
