The St James Priory Project is based in Bristol city centre and offers comprehensive support and treatment to people with a history of homelessness who have a substance dependency. The service is specifically targeted at Bristol people but can accept individuals from throughout the UK. The Project offers 'First' and 'Third' Stage residential treatment using the 12-step abstinence model in two special houses as well as separate addictions counselling. Walsingham House is a first-stage residential rehab service for alcohol and drug addicted men and women aged 18+. St James House offers third-stage support and treatment for people who have experienced first and second stage treatment for addiction and who are maintaining abstinence.

Referrals are accepted from Social Services, Criminal Justice and Drug Action Teams. Housing costs are met through claiming Housing Benefit. There are no treatment costs for St James House, only housing costs.

The project facilitates a weekly family and carers group. In addition, Walsingham House has a limited number of places for dual diagnosed clients.

PS - Health and Poverty

Perhaps the biggest cause of ill health in the world is poverty. Help to Make Poverty History. For example, why not lend some of your money to disadvantaged communities to enable them to trade their way out of poverty through schemes such as Shared Interest.
