Birchwood @ Kaleidoscope House

Transforming lives with residential care.

Birchwood is a 25-bed residential centre in Heswall, Wirral, welcoming people from across the UK.

A residential stay offers respite from a chaotic lifestyle, a chance to break destructive routines, make positive changes, and work towards sustained recovery.

Rated Good by the Care Quality Commission, we’re one of the few centres in the North West offering medically monitored and managed inpatient detox and drug and alcohol treatment.

We can help you move forward by:

• Resolving physical dependence on drugs and alcohol
• Supporting recovery journeys
• Building self-worth and confidence
• Expanding access to learning and education
• Connecting residents with recovered peers
• Inspiring change through co-production and peer support
• Providing safe, sociable activities
• Encouraging self-directed recovery
• Helping families and carers resolve conflicts and communication breakdowns
• Offering advice and guidance to families and carers, and including them in post-discharge planning

I arrived at Birchwood in a terrible state. The staff and other patients were incredible, they made me feel safe and secure. Throughout my stay they were all very positive with me.

They have now led me to a place which is helping me with my sobriety. Without any doubt I owe the staff at Birchwood my life.
