About Us

Since opening in 2011, the UK’s first ever “dry-bar”, The Brink has been a safe space, a life-changing place – a recovery space.

In the heart of Liverpool’s vibrant city centre, people affected by drug and alcohol addiction turn to our award-winning recovery hub to find help, support and access to the treatment they need.

Although all of the recovery services continued uninterrupted during the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns, we were unfortunately forced to temporarily close The Brink Cafe in June 2020.

We have now thankfully reopened the cafe once again to provide our safe and supportive community space, more opportunities to work and volunteer, and a fabulous base from which to access our services or begin your journey.
