- Support Through Addiction Recovery
STAR Housing
Star Housing is a not-for-profit organisation committed to providing a supportive environment for individuals seeking recovery from addiction.
Our unique approach combines residential accommodation with a structured day program, offering comprehensive support and resources to help our clients regain control of their lives.
Supporting Recovery,
Rebuilding Lives
At STAR Housing UK, we understand the courage it takes to embark on the journey of recovery from addiction. And we believe that a safe home environment is a crucial part of any recovery journey.
Our tranquil havens are designed and structured using the Psychologically Informed Environments (PIE) framework (published by Department for Communities and Local Government in 2012), and offers a safe space where individuals can find solace, support, and strength as they navigate the path to healing.
A lot of what goes into creating a psychologically safe environment are good management practises. Things like establishing clear norms and expectations so there is a sense of predictability and fairness; encouraging open communication and active listening with individuals, making sure they feel supported.
We understand that learning is key in any situation, regardless of the outcome. STAR Housing promotes individuals to ask questions and to admit to mistakes, without fear of negative consequences or judgement. You are here to learn a new way to live without drink/drugs and mistakes will be made, but if you continue to put effort in to your recovery, it will become effortless.

Family Support Group
One of the biggest lies addicts tell themselves is “I’m not hurting anyone else, only myself!”
The reality is that as they slide down towards oblivion, their family, friends and loved ones can only watch on in helpless pain and despair. Nothing they seem to say or do makes a difference, and they cannot understand why.
In truth these people suffer as much as the addict themselves, because all they want is for them to stop destroying themselves and those around them.
This is why at STAR Housing we recognise the importance of their recovery as well as the addicts. And as such we provide a Family Support Group. Take a look at our page for more information and details.
