Life at Broadway Lodge

“The tools you’ll gain from Broadway Lodge will remain with you long after you leave. This place is called a Miracle Mansion for a reason and you will understand when you walk through the doors.”

Staying at Broadway Lodge

Accommodation

We have 13 private, single occupancy bedrooms (many of which have an en-suite), as well as bedrooms with two or four beds that are shared with same sex clients.

Addiction is an isolating illness so sharing a bedroom provides you with valuable 24/7 peer support which is a beneficial part of the treatment process. We understand the reservations that can be felt about the prospect of sharing but we often find these feelings soon disappear as highly supportive relationships are built. However, we are able to provide a single room if available.

Our Gordon Beard Unit (situated next to our main house) is where you will stay if you are having a medically managed detox with us. During your detox, you will be cared for 24/7 by our experienced team of specialist nurses and health care assistants. The five bedrooms in the Gordon Beard Unit are twin occupancy (with en-suite), and may be shared with same-sex peers.

Personalised programme

Your tailored recovery plan

As soon as you’re in treatment, we will work with you to develop an individual plan of care which identifies any personal needs and is constantly reviewed as you progress through treatment.

Group therapy sessions take place at least once a day, every day. You will also work on written assignments designed to help you explore your addiction triggers, access your assets and develop greater self understanding.

Psycho-educational lectures and workshops on particular topics are held regularly. Relaxation, mindfulness meditation classes and stress management sessions form part of the weekly programme and Hypnotherapy, EMDR, Reflexology, massage, Reiki and Auricular Acupuncture are also available. You will also attend Fellowship meetings during your treatment programme.

You can read more details about our detoxification programme here and our full therapeutic treatment programme here where you can explore what a typical day is like.

“I spent 8 weeks at Broadway Lodge this year and had an incredible experience. In all honesty the care, counselling and entire experience far exceeded my expectations and hopes.”

Holistic therapies

Relax & unwind

To aid relaxation and to treat the mind and body we encourage clients to partake in a range of healthy activities provided at Broadway Lodge. This includes regular light exercise such as walking to explore the local surroundings and Tai Chi Qigong as well as complimentary therapies including Indian Head Massage, Reiki, Reflexology and Auricular Acupuncture.

Living at Broadway Lodge

Meals and nutrition

A balanced, nutritional diet is really important whilst in treatment and in recovery. Our in-house catering team ensure that you are provided with three healthy, appetising and satisfying meals every day. There are several options offered at mealtimes including a vegetarian option and we can cater for dietary requirements.  As well as the meals that are prepared  by our catering team, a variety of fresh fruit, tea, coffee, chilled milk and water is available to you at all times.

You will also be given information and advice about food and diet as nutrition and the re-establishment of a healthy eating pattern play an important part in your recovery.
