Developed as TSPs flagship project in 1994, Transit provides a variety of structured interventions to help drug and alcohol misusers address their addictions through the provision of relapse prevention classes, educational programmes and peer group support sessions.

Funded through Liverpool’s Integrated Commissioning Addiction and Offender Health Team, the 12-week in-house programme provides advice, support and training in all aspects of improving health and well being, including healthy eating cookery lessons, stress & anger management as well as functional skills classes.

Many of our clients tell us of their ‘arrested development’ from the time they first began taking drugs up to the time they decided to seek support to address their addictions. Gaps in education and general life skills are common, as well as estrangement from family and friends. Transit’s objective is to help our clients bridge the gap from treatment back into mainstream education & training and onto a drug free lifestyle, where relationships are mended and forged so that the possibility of becoming economically active becomes a reality.

Upon graduation from the Transit programme, clients are supported and encouraged to continue their recovery and development through accessing other treatment programmes or ‘move on’ support available in the city.
