In the charity's own words

KEYS operates a programme of integrated medical, spiritual and community support for individuals with alcohol and drug addiction. The programme is operated by teams comprising mostly of volunteers within churches. The team operates from a conviction that by this holistic approach, issues often at the root of addictions will be dealt with in such a way that relapse becomes much less likely.
