CONCORDAT GRADUATES

Formed in December 2010, the Concordat consists of 38 residential rehabilitation centres from all over the United Kingdom. This is designed to fully represent the rehabilitation industry in the UK. The graduates of these clinics formed a meeting in July 2011 to discuss how residential rehabilitation should be promoted better to achieve higher levels of funding... In a tough economic climate, many alcohol and drug rehabilitation centres find it difficult to fund themselves to treat their patients. In fact, 31 rehabilitation centres closed between 2008 and 2010. This is due to the low level of funding that addicts receive to obtain the help that they require. It is estimated that only 2% of registered service users will ever get the opportunity to ever get into residential rehab, we believe this figure should be at least 15%.
