River Garden Auchincruive: River Garden Auchincruive is a charitable training and social enterprise development centre offering a residential programme for people in the early stages of recovery from drug and/or alcohol addiction. Located on the banks of the River Ayr in South Ayrshire, when fully developed the plan is to have up to 56 residents at any one time on the journey of recovery.

RGA  follows in the footsteps of other similar chairties around the world; San Patrignano (Italy), Basta (Sweden) and Delancey Street (USA), which have been producing successful results helping people into long-term recovery, reintegrating into employment and mainstream society.

RGA is based on the same principles of abstinence, trust, firm boundaries, mutual support, social enterprise, respect for life, and responsibility. Participants receive personal developmental support alongside learning new skills and qualifications in a range of social enterprise activities and we also plan to open up links to universities and colleges to expand educational opportunities.
