Since our foundation in 2006, Special and Different have developed a unique flexible approach to alcohol dependency treatment. Our fundamental aim is to help all those suffering from the illness of alcoholism, the alcoholic and their families. We know that when drinking, alcoholics are in the grip of a compulsion that changes their personality and takes away all the qualities that would otherwise allow them to lead successful lives. We do not judge, we treat each individual holistically, with dignity and respect and, as an organisation and as individuals we live by the principles embodied in the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous.
