Outreach Services

Classes (yoga & meditation) to support drug & alcohol rehabilitation began in August 2004 at the Kriya Centre and have been growing steadily ever since to include different client groups.  Our outreach work has been growing as we deliver more classes and complementary healthcare off-site, at different centres (statutory & voluntary) throughout the UK, which allows us to support their respective programmes more. A summary of the various services is below:
