We work with vulnerable men with a history of addiction, giving them a safe home where they address their addiction and past behaviour, supported by experienced keyworkers, while they change their lives and choose new life ambitions - to work and live independently, reunited with their families.

The men we work with are often the most disadvantaged in society with high social-environmental risk factors such as low incomes, single-parent families, domestic violence, parents with addictive and criminal behaviours, learning difficulties and mental health issues. Their addiction develops as a means of escape, and then becomes its own trap. There is little sustained help available for our men to address their problems in an effective manner, getting to the heart of why they needed an escape
The Supported Housing Programme gives our Residents the opportunity to address their addiction and past behaviour in a supportive and safe environment. The initial 12 week programme includes process groups, educational sessions and family work, teaching the men to become independent and self-sufficient. This is followed by the opportunity to spend up to a year in one of our move-on houses in Clapham, where they seek work, training and independent housing, whilst maintaining their recovery.
I wasn’t aware of the people I was hurting. I didn’t think twice about getting what I wanted – I was just going through a lifestyle of crime, drugs, prison and broken relationships. I went to TNP because I was tired of being sick and tired, of wasting my life, causing victims. Recovery gave me hope
The only effective way to break addiction is the gift of desperation.My problem is not drink and drugs,my true problem is living life on life’s terms. Drink and drugs was my solution, with consequences. I made a choice, I had a moment of clarity in a suicidal state. I decided to give Nehemiah a go.
The Nehemiah Project gives great potential for self development because it’s make or break yourself right there and then and it’s not just the first day you get here, it’s every day you’re left with your own life in your own hands. Nehemiah is the only thing that’s worked .
