Rehab.ai invites Preston to help shape a clearer path to care

Helping people find care without sales pressure. Helping local providers reach the people who need them.

Rehab.ai is inviting people and providers in Preston, England to help improve how addiction treatment and mental health care are found. Its free directory brings reported services and available contact details together, giving people a starting point to explore care for themselves or someone they love and contact providers directly.

The work begins with a practical goal: make it easier to understand an unfamiliar service, find out how to reach it and prepare for the next conversation. Local providers and people who know the community can help turn published records into information that is clearer and more useful.

Finding care on your own terms

Rehab.ai will never sell advertising or leads. Providers do not pay for placement, and people can explore their options without sales pressure. The directory is designed to support discovery while leaving decisions about care with the person seeking support and the professionals they consult.

The Preston page is a local starting point within the wider England directory. People can explore services in the area and look further afield when the listed options do not meet their needs. Before arranging care, people can ask providers about suitability, referral requirements, waiting times, costs and funding. Mental health services do not necessarily offer addiction treatment, so the support available should be confirmed directly.

Useful information, open to correction

The England directory starts with selected CQC records for mental health and substance misuse services. It does not include every NHS, independent or community service.

The UK sources and coverage page explains where the information comes from and where further work is needed. A listing is not an endorsement, a quality ranking or confirmation that a service is currently accepting people. Making those limits visible is part of building a directory people can question and improve.

Providers can request corrections, submit a claim for their listing or ask for removal. People with lived experience, family members and local contributors can flag missing services, outdated details or descriptions that are difficult to understand. Suggested changes are reviewed before publication.

Our three principles

  1. We are data-driven.
  2. We will never sell advertising.
  3. We will iterate to infinity.

Technology guided by local knowledge

Rehab.ai’s vision is to use AI to organise treatment information and simplify discovery, supported by transparent sources, human oversight and ongoing correction. Technology can help bring information together; people who use and provide services can explain what is missing and what would make it more useful.

The UK workspace gives contributors a place to work through these improvements with the team. Participation is voluntary and currently unpaid. Joining does not commit anyone to a time requirement, and the scope of a contribution can be discussed before it begins. Correction and removal requests are welcome regardless of participation.
