Our expert-led approach, combined with a focus on co-production, ensures that every step of the recovery journey is guided by professional insight and shaped by the voices of those we support.

Our approach
At Passmores House, recovery is about more than detox and rehab.
Our programme combines medical expertise with emotional and social support, helping people to rebuild confidence, routine and a sense of belonging. Every person’s journey is different, so we tailor our support to individual goals, whatever that might look like.
What makes us different
Passmores House is set in a peaceful, Grade II listed building surrounded by gardens and a pond. A calm, restorative space just outside London.
Our team includes nurses, a consultant psychiatrist and experienced recovery workers who deliver 24/7 care and specialist support. We have particular expertise in working with people who have complex or multiple needs, including physical or mental health conditions alongside substance use.
This combination of clinical expertise, compassion and co-production makes Passmores House a unique place to recover and rebuild.
