At Freeway Recovery Centre, we are more than a substance misuse facility—we are a community-driven organisation working to bring lasting change to the lives of individuals and the communities they come from.

Based in Cape Town, we are a registered Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) and Non-Profit Company (NPC). While rehabilitation remains at the heart of what we do, we have grown in response to the urgent needs we’ve witnessed in the communities around us—poverty, homelessness, unemployment, and the lack of access to meaningful support systems.

We believe that true recovery is about more than breaking free from addiction. It’s about restoring dignity, rebuilding a sense of purpose, and empowering individuals to become active, contributing members of their communities.

That’s why we’ve developed a comprehensive, community-centred recovery and development program. Our centre offers both rehabilitation services and sober living support, with a focus on life skills, job readiness, personal development, and long-term reintegration. We work not only with individuals, but alongside families, local organisations, and networks to create real, sustainable impact.

Every man who walks through our doors is part of a larger story—a story of resilience, transformation, and hope. We’ve seen individuals overcome addiction, reconnect with their loved ones, secure employment, and return to their communities ready to make a difference.

We are committed to changing lives—and through that, transforming communities.
