The Anahita Recovery Centre offers highly supported accommodation to men and women, over the age of eighteen, who have a present or past history of mental health difficulties.

The centre is divided into two self-contained units. One unit caters for women and the other is for men. Each unit can accommodate up to ten people.

The centre offers short-term placements, of up to two years, with a view to avoiding hospital admission or supporting the transition from hospital to less supportive community accommodation

Longer-term placements are available for those who still experience more anxiety than satisfaction from life in the wider community and for those who need more help to cope with independent living.

At Anahita we seek to empower all of our service users with the skills to take control of their lives. Therefore, we will give you the opportunity to choose your keyworker as well as the time and place of your key work session.
We will also support you to identify your hopes, dreams and aspirations as part of your person centred support plan.
We believe in choice and control and will give you as much support to make your own choices about your future and your recovery.
Whether you are staying at Anahita for a while or just passing through, we hope that you have a pleasant and rewarding stay.

The Anahita Recovery Centre is not registered to detain people under the Mental Health Act but if you are 'sectioned' it may still be possible to come to Anahita.
