Delamere’s 15-Month Addiction Aftercare Programme: Designed to Support Lasting Recovery

At Delamere, we believe that addiction treatment goes far deeper than simply stopping the addictive substance or behaviour. That’s why we offer an extensive 15-month aftercare programme to help you settle back into daily life after completing your stay with us.

  • Weekly aftercare meetings for 15 months to support your recovery
  • Access to the Delamere Alumni App to stay up to date with your programme
  • Intermediate care through our 12 weekly Bloom sessions to help you settle back into daily life

Introducing Our Extensive Addiction Aftercare Support

During the final treatment modules at Delamere, we help you prepare to return home to your individual circumstances. During your stay with us, you can expect to gain an understanding of your individual triggers and gain coping strategies before it’s time to leave.

However, our support doesn’t simply end once your stay with us is complete. The last phase of the Delamere treatment model is our 15-month aftercare programme. We offer weekly meetings throughout your 15 months of aftercare, which can be attended at Delamere or online.

This is supported by our Bloom programme, which begins with 12 weekly meetings in small groups to support you through the first 3 months of recovery after you return home. The bespoke syllabus is designed to help you transition back into everyday life after completing addiction rehab treatment with Delamere.

You’ll also be provided access to our Delamere Alumni App, allowing you to stay up to date with your aftercare programme, celebrate milestones, and reach out directly to our team should you need to.

What Happens After Addiction Rehab Treatment?

It’s perfectly natural to feel nervous about the prospect of returning home after your addiction rehab treatment. Delamere’s addiction treatment programme allows you to remove yourself from the stresses of daily life and address the root causes of addiction.

When you return home, there will likely be an adjustment period whilst you settle back into life with the tools you have developed during your stay with us.

The extensive aftercare programme offered by Delamere plays a vital role in supporting your ongoing recovery. You’ll be offered structured support as you transition back into everyday life.

Who Can Access Delamere’s Aftercare Services?

Our 15-month aftercare programme is available to all Delamere guests after completing a stay with us. No matter what has brought you to Delamere, your aftercare programme will be designed to offer the support you need in recovery.

You can join your sessions in person at Delamere’s purpose-built addiction treatment clinic or remotely for those who are unable to travel to Delamere.

What is Involved in the Delamere Aftercare Programme?

Once you’ve completed your residential treatment at Delamere, you will begin our Bloom intermediate care programme. Bloom acts as a bridge between residential treatment and the rest of your aftercare support.

During your first 3 months of aftercare, you can also return to Delamere twice a week to receive expert support in the early stages of recovery.

Every Delamere guest will complete our Future Proofing programme with support from our expert team of therapists and mentors. This core assignment will cover the practical recovery activities you can build into daily life as you move forward after your stay with us.

You can continue to receive support with weekly meetings throughout our full 15-month aftercare programme. Our extensive aftercare is designed to offer long-term support to ensure you have everything you need to achieve the best possible outcomes in recovery.

Staying Connected in Your Aftercare with the Delamere App

The Bloom programme comprises 12 workshops taken in small groups with fellow guests who have recently completed a stay at Delamere.

The modules will cover many of the ‘firsts’ that you may experience in early recovery. Your sessions will also revisit some of the theory that you have worked through during your residential stay with Delamere.

We’ve launched the Delamere Alumni App to support your aftercare, allowing you to access vital information and reach out to the Delamere team.

All Delamere guests are provided access to the alumni app as they prepare for discharge at the end of a stay with us. Our care team will be available to introduce you to the app and the features available to you, including:

Sobriety Clock

You can view an accurate display of how long you have been in sobriety, allowing you to celebrate milestones and stay up to date with your progress. You’ll also have access to our financial tracker where you can view how much money you have saved since stopping active addiction.

Reach Out Button

You can reach out directly to the Delamere team to request support without the need to pick up the phone.
Anyone who has suffered a relapse can reach out through the app, and a member of our team will be in touch to offer support. You can also reach out to our team if you need more support through our ‘I need to talk’ button. A member of our care team will then contact you directly to provide the guidance you need.

Content Hub

Our content hub offers a range of useful materials and information to support you in recovery. This includes materials for your Bloom aftercare sessions, refresher flash cards covering the main themes from your group programme, and the opportunity for daily reflections and gratitude logs.

Community Hub

Our community hub offers a social feed allowing Delamere alumni to share recovery milestones with fellow guests. You can also view the latest updates from Delamere, including invites to alumni social events such as reunions celebrating recovery.
