Set within 14 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds on the edge of the Trough of Bowland, we provide an environment perfectly suited to rehab and recovery — offering time for reflection, and the opportunity to refocus and rebuild your life.
We offer stand-out, medically-managed detox for drug and alcohol addiction issues; high-end in-patient drug and alcohol rehab programmes, with great therapy support; opportunities to build skills and recovery capital through volunteering at our on-site social enterprise; and access to appropriate aftercare and move-on support.
We know everyone is different. So our flexible and person-centred approach allows our dedicated and experienced team to tailor programmes to the needs of the individual — addressing physical, psychological and social needs in a safe and supportive environment.
Our friendly recovery navigators will be happy to guide you through the wide range of options available, to discuss the admissions process, and to provide more information about your stay with us.
Subject to bed availability and a satisfactory assessment, we can often admit new residents within 24 to 48 hours.

No visits are allowed during the first 10 days of treatment. Following this initial period, visits can be arranged for Saturdays and Sundays.
Weekend home visits may be possible with the approval of your recovery co-ordinator following a period of stabilisation - usually a minimum of six weeks.
Residents may send and receive mail but all packages must be opened in the presence of a staff member.

Your recovery co-ordinator will work with you to prepare a personalised continuing care plan.
Before departure, we provide all residents with information about local mutual aid groups, including Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous groups. There is strong evidence that continued involvement in these groups improves your chances of continuing recovery. We also help make referrals to local community support groups.

My time at Salus wasn’t the easiest, but was the most rewarding. All staff are amazing and no what there talking about.
I had one of the most memorable times of my life, and learnt so much about myself and more importantly my behaviours.
I’m currently 7 and a half moths clean and sober, and truly loving my my new life in Recovery.
