Rebuilding lives beyond addiction.

At The Nehemiah Project we provide safe housing and support for men who want to recover from addiction helping them build stability, purpose, and hope.

We believe that anyone can change, given the right support and opportunity.

Housing

A safe and stable place to live is the foundation for change. Our supported housing gives men security, structure and a sense of belonging while they rebuild their lives.

Recovery

Our abstinence based programme combines counselling, peer support and personal development to help men face the root causes of addiction and move forward with confidence.

Opportunity

We help residents prepare for independent living through training and volunteering, building the skills and purpose needed for lasting recovery.

Olly’s Story

I spent many years in and out of prison. At Nehemiah I finally faced my past and started to rebuild my life. The structure, counselling, and support helped me understand the root of my addiction and the choices I’d made.

With help from the family support team, I’ve reconnected with my dad and my two sons, and even spent Christmas with my brothers for the first time in over a decade. For the first time in years, I feel hopeful about the future and want to help others find the same chance I was given.

Pete’s Story

After years of addiction, I lost everything - my job, my home, and my relationship with my daughter. When I arrived at Nehemiah, it was the first time in years I felt safe and supported. Through counselling and group work, I began to understand the pain behind my addiction and started to rebuild my confidence.

I’ve now moved into a second-stage house, volunteer regularly with Street Soccer London, and have reconnected with my family. Earlier this year, I represented England in the Homeless World Cup - something I never thought possible.
