Visit the charity's profileARBI describes the damage caused to the brain as a result of chronic alcohol consumption - this can significantly impact a person's ability to perform normal day-to-day activities.
Our residential treatment centre is the first of its kind throughout Ireland - you'll be able to find our Leonard Cheshire service in Belfast.
Chronic alcohol consumption is estimated to cost Northern Ireland £900 million each year including £250 million of our health spending. Northern Ireland's Chief Medical Officer has warned that alcohol misuse is one of our greatest public health issues. ARBI is a reversible condition and up to 75% of patients can make partial or complete recovery if given personalised treatment and care. Such support can really make a difference to the lives of many in Northern Ireland, achieving better patient outcomes, cost savings and significant reductions in recurring hospital admissions.
By supporting this unit you are supporting the pioneering treatment of people in Northern Ireland with ARBI.
