What if this was the moment everything changed?

At Kenward House, recovery isn’t just about stopping addiction, it’s about healing trauma, rebuilding confidence, and creating a future filled with hope.

Through our 12-Step programme, trauma-informed therapy, EMDR, therapeutic gardens, fellowship meetings and ongoing Recovery Plus support, we walk alongside each resident every step of the way.

You are not alone. A new beginning is possible.

Take the first step today.

A MASSIVE thank you to Libby and Bel! 🏅

They did it. After months of dedication, determination and courage, they’ve crossed the finish line of the Brighton Marathon.

“It was hard, exhilarating, exhausting & very emotional… but we did it.”

Their journey is about so much more than 26.2 miles. It’s about turning lived experience into strength, raising awareness, lifting stigma, and opening up conversations around addiction and recovery.

Thanks to their incredible efforts - and your generosity, they’ve raised an amazing £1,181 to support Kenward Trust.

We couldn’t be more grateful. 💙
