"The honest question is not whether your aftercare exists. It is whether anyone is still using it at month six."

THE PROBLEM

The aftercare cliff

Leaving residential treatment is one of the highest-risk moments in alcohol and drug recovery. Isolation sets in quickly, structure disappears, and the community that formed in treatment dissolves. Most aftercare programmes deliver the same passive experience: a digital group, a list of meetings, an optional monthly check-in.

Engagement drops sharply by month three. By month six, most clients have drifted from any structured support entirely. That is the gap where Pace lives.

THE SOLUTION

What Pace provides

Pace is a structured, peer-supported outdoor recovery programme operating weekly across regional UK hubs. We partner with residential rehab centres to provide discharged clients with consistent, in-person aftercare, fully managed by us, with monthly data reporting back to you.

Every Saturday at 9am, your clients join the same group trail, made up of people from different rehabs centres. Same faces, same time, same accountability. Attendance is logged digitally. Absence is noticed and followed up.

For the first time, you can genuinely offer your clients 12-months of weekly in-person aftercare.

Weekly outdoor trail

ONE

6-8 miles every Saturday, led by trained peer guides. One suitable pilot location, with more locations from 2026.

TWO

Recovery-specific community

Every member shares the same goal: abstinence. Not a wellness club; a peer group that genuinely understands what recovery demands.

THREE

Accountability built in

Digital sign-in every session. Mid-week check-ins during the critical first 90 days. Absence is noticed, which is rare in aftercare.

FOUR

12 months of structure

Matches your aftercare commitment exactly. After 12 months, members can continue self-funded. The community stays intact.

EVIDENCE BASE

Grounded in what works

Pace is built on the principles of Assertive Continuing Care (ACC) and the Community Reinforcement Approach (CRA), both with strong evidence bases for sustained recovery outcomes. Research consistently shows that proactive, consistent, community-based support significantly outperforms passive digital aftercare. Physical activity and nature exposure carry additional independent evidence for supporting mental health and sustained abstinence from alcohol and drugs.

ASSERTIVE CONTINUING CARE

Participants receiving structured continuing care showed significantly higher rates of sustained abstinence compared to treatment as usual at 12-month follow-up. Proactive outreach and structured activity were identified as the key mechanisms.

COMMUNITY REINFORCEMENT APPROACH

CRA consistently outperforms standard aftercare by replacing substance use with alternative rewarding activities: social connection, routine, and meaningful community engagement. Pace operationalises these principles in a non-clinical outdoor setting.

HOW TO START

The pilot offer

We are not asking for a 12-month commitment without evidence. The pilot is designed to remove risk from your first decision entirely.

Run a 12-week cohort of 5–10 clients. Receive the full reporting suite. Review it with your clinical team. If it adds value to your aftercare pathway, we move to an annual partnership. If it does not, we stop - no obligation, no awkward conversation.

Pilots are available to a limited number of partner rehabs in the catchment for the 2026 launch cohort.

Pace is a non-clinical programme. It does not provide treatment, therapy, detox, or medical support. Pace operates alongside, not instead of, clinical and medical services.
