Open Road is a charity with over 34years of experience helping individuals and families affected by addiction. We provide vital drug and alcohol treatment, employment support, and health and well-being services across Essex, Southend, Thurrock, and Medway. Our mission is to empower a diverse range of inderviduals, families, and communities to lead healthy more meaningful lives, free from addiction, offending behavour and disadvantage, to ensure healthier happier lifestyles.
We support thousands of individuals each year, offering safe spaces, guidance, and practical help to rebuild their lives. Many of our staff and volunteers have lived experience, giving them a unique understanding of the challenges our clients face.
At Open Road, we believe that recovery is about more than just treatment—it’s about connection, opportunity, and hope. That’s why we run community initiatives like our brunch clubs, providing food, drinks, and social support to those experiencing homelessness and financial hardship.
Your support helps us create a welcoming, inclusive environment where everyone has a chance to thrive.
