Life. Restored.
A whole person approach to overcoming addiction & homelessness in Ireland.
We work with people rebuilding their lives after addiction, homelessness, & social exclusion by providing housing, recovery, education, employment & family support, all under one roof.
Our Model Of Care
Ireland has 17,000+ people homeless. Addiction affects 1 in 3 families. Most programmes treat one symptom. Tiglin treats the whole person.
Biological
Supporting individuals physical health though healthcare, nutrition, fitness classes, gym, sports facilities and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle
Psychological
Supporting mental health and well-being through services such as counselling, psychotherapy, therapeutic groups, hydrotherapy, breathwork and promotion of self care.
Social
Improving social health through housing support, advocacy, family support, educational opportunities, work experience, mentorship, coaching and reintegration.
Spiritual
Supporting spiritual health though chaplaincy services, prayer, meditation and recovery groups.
How we make a difference
Addiction Recovery
9 months of residential rehabilitation, built around the whole person model. Medical, psychological, social, and spiritual support -- all in one structured programme with a proven track record.

Housing
From emergency support to long-term settled housing. We work with people at every stage -- rough sleeping, transitional accommodation, and independent living -- across 7 sites in Ireland.
Education
Accredited Level 6 courses delivered on-site through our SETU partnership. In 2024, 111 people completed a third-level certificate while in recovery. Learning and healing at the same time.

Social Enterprise
Creating real jobs for people coming through our programmes. Work that builds confidence, routine, and a future -- not just employment on paper.

I am passionate about believing in people, & giving them an opportunity to believe in themselves.
Our recovery model actually lasts, because we help the whole person heal.
