What is SPHERE?
What is SPHERE?
SPHERE stands for Supporting Psychoactive substance users into Housing by Enabling Recovery and Empowerment.
Launched in 2023, it's a ground-breaking housing and support project for users of psychoactive substances, including monkey dust, in Stoke-on-Trent.
Across the city, many individuals are excluded from housing options due to challenging behaviour that is caused by substance use. However it's difficult to start a journey of recovery without stable housing. It's a vicious cycle.
To combat this, our specialist SPHERE team work to improve access to accommodation and substance use treatment for active users. This will enable them to begin their recovery journey and start a new chapter, free from substance use.
