Not an emergency service

Daren is not an emergency service, crisis team, detox unit or substitute for urgent medical care. If someone is in immediate danger, call emergency services now. In the UK, Samaritans can be contacted on 116 123.

Not medical or legal advice

The website provides general information about private recovery support, family support, sober companion work, aftercare and referral guidance. It is not medical, psychiatric, legal or financial advice.

No guaranteed outcomes

Recovery support can help with structure, accountability and next steps, but no website or provider can guarantee sobriety, abstinence, family reconciliation, treatment success or a specific outcome.

Clinical and regulated care

If detox, psychiatric care, residential rehab, medication, diagnosis, safeguarding intervention or regulated clinical treatment is needed, an appropriate medical, clinical or regulated service should be involved. Private coaching or companion support should not be used as a shortcut around clinical risk.

Referral transparency

Referral guidance should be honest about fit, safety, location, cost and aftercare. If any referral fee, commercial relationship or other conflict of interest applies to a recommendation, it should be disclosed before you make a decision.

Confidentiality and safety limits

Private support is handled discreetly, but confidentiality may have limits where there is a serious risk of harm, safeguarding concern, legal requirement or emergency situation.

Photos, stories and testimonials

Photos and personal stories should only be used with permission. They are included to show the person behind the service, not to claim a guaranteed result for anyone else.

Website accuracy

The site is maintained in good faith, but services, availability, referral options, meeting links and legal requirements can change. Important decisions should be checked directly before relying on them.

FAQ

FAQ sections are useful because they answer common safety, cost and suitability questions before someone sends a message. They should stay honest, practical and free from promises.
