Yeldall Manor is a residential rehabilitation centre which, since 1977, has been helping men overcome their drug and alcohol addictions and return to society to live new lives, drug-, alcohol- and crime-free. These men, whose descent into addiction began with just a 'harmless' drink or joint (of cannabis), got to the point where virtually nothing else mattered except the drink or drugs. Many lost jobs and families because of their addiction and, although they tried to stop, the withdrawal symptoms were so severe that their past efforts failed.

During the two-part programme, residents find a place where the staff and other residents welcome and accept them. We try to be like a family and, like good parents, offer both love and discipline. Because the life of an addict is very chaotic, days in rehab are quite structured to help them bring order back into their lives.
