Alcohol Help

Life Works Community Ltd: Old Woking
Do you or someone you care about struggle with an alcohol problem?

About us:

Alcohol addiction is a progressive and debilitating disease. Although most people who drink do not become alcoholic, at least 15% of those who do are at risk for developing a serious problem which impacts relationships, health, work and the quality of life.

At Life Works, we understand that the effects of this illness can feel overwhelming. It is difficult to know where to turn, and you may doubt whether anything or anyone can really help. Our highly trained and caring professional staff treat alcoholism for what it really is, an ineffective and eventually damaging way that alcoholics try to cope with life. We provide a safe environment and caring, comprehensive treatment of alcohol addiction, addressing the physical, emotional and mental effects of the disease. Our programme offers support through an array of services including education, group and individual therapy, healthy nutrition, gentle exercise, journaling, art therapy, cognitive restructuring, family services, relapse prevention and long term aftercare.

You are not alone; let us help you or your loved one today.
