Established in 1976, St Anne’s Community Services was the UK’s first community-based alcohol detoxification service and has since grown into a respected provider of addiction treatment and rehabilitation. The service supports adults seeking recovery from alcohol dependency, offering both detox and structured rehabilitation programmes.

Based in Leeds, the St Anne’s Community Services centre is CQC registered, with its most recent inspection rating it “Outstanding” in care and “Good” overall. St Anne’s is part of the CHOICES Rehab network and works in partnership with local universities, providing placements for nursing, social work, and medical students. Its longstanding reputation reflects nearly 50 years of commitment to safe, evidence-based alcohol addiction recovery.

St Anne’s Community Services is situated in a detached property within its own grounds, offering a calm environment despite its central urban location. It accommodates up to 23 residents, with five beds dedicated to alcohol detoxification and 18 spaces reserved for alcohol rehabilitation. Each bedroom at St Anne’s is single-occupancy with private washing facilities, ensuring comfort and privacy.

St Anne’s Alcohol Services’ communal spaces include lounges, a dining room, a tearoom, a games room, and garden areas. Independent living facilities are available for individuals preparing to transition back into the community, including a self-contained flat and four practice spaces designed to develop life skills. Arts and crafts materials, quiet rooms, and an on-site laundry provide a homely, supportive atmosphere at St Anne’s.

About this clinic

Detox is medically monitored, typically lasting seven days, and is overseen by 24-hour nursing staff with GP reviews during treatment. St Anne’s alcohol rehabilitation follows a 13-week structured group programme, drawing on CBT, Motivational Enhancement, and Social Behaviour and Network Therapy to build resilience and reduce relapse risks.

Treatment plans at St Anne’s Community Services are tailored to each individual and supported by regular one-to-one sessions with nurses and support staff. Patients are encouraged to engage with AA and SMART Recovery groups in addition to in-house therapy. Aftercare includes weekly face-to-face and online support groups, helping patients sustain progress. The St Anne’s Alcohol Service also fosters volunteering opportunities, with several staff bringing lived experience with alcohol addiction into their roles.
