Kent’s Leading Alcohol & Drug Rehabilitation & Resettlement Centre
About Kenward Trust
Founded in 1968, Kenward Trust is a charity based in Kent that saves lives every day from alcohol and drugs, homelessness and crime. We help people to transform their lives and create a new future away from their addictions. Our work spans from sessions in schools delivering early education and interventions, through to residential rehab and providing a home for residents to settle back into the community to continue their journey of recovery.
At Kenward Trust, we give residents choices on how to manage their own recovery, through a structured programme. In Kenward House, we take a Therapeutic Community approach, which is a participative, group-based method for treating alcohol and drug addiction, as well as retaining many aspects of the Recovery Model of treatment delivery, where recovery is seen as more of a journey, rather than an aim of treatment.
In The Barn, we offer a safe place to find and develop an understanding of the 12 Step Programme, designed for people to help one another achieve and maintain abstinence from their addiction.
We also provide ‘a safe place to call home’ for those on their journey of recovery from addiction to stay in our Resettlement Programme. This begins with a stay at Stage 2 Resettlement at Kenward, before proceeding on to one of our Stage 3 Move On projects at sites across Kent and East Sussex. The length of stay in these projects is generally up to two years. We offer regular support from their Key Worker but they are encouraged to become active in the community through volunteering and linking in with recovery groups available in the area.
Our Vision, Mission and Values underpin the way we help people in crisis. We aim to reach out to those who are on the margins of society and we believe that everyone deserves a second chance. People with mental and physical health needs; people who seek the road to recovery.
Helping transform the lives of people experiencing addiction and homelessness for 56 years - Giving hope and recovery from addiction
Kenward Trust offers residential rehabilitation in Kent for those with alcohol and drug addiction issues, as well as follow-on resettlement accommodation, to provide a safe home on the journey of recovery. We support family and friends of those affected by addiction and you can either self-refer for treatment directly, or you can be referred from an external agency.
