What Get Connected does

Get Connected is a UK-based consumer-facing referral, assessment, and admissions resource for mental health and addiction treatment, operating as the public front-end of UKAT Group Limited. The legal entity is UK Addiction Treatment Limited (company number 08134967), and the business was launched in 2018. Its commercial activity centres on channelling inbound enquiries — via the getconnected.org.uk website and a 24/7 phone admissions line (0203 993 5571) — into treatment programmes at seven wholly-owned, CQC-regulated residential rehab clinics across England: Sanctuary Lodge (Essex), Recovery Lighthouse (West Sussex), Primrose Lodge (Surrey), Liberty House (Bedfordshire), Oasis Bradford (Yorkshire), Oasis Runcorn (Cheshire), and Banbury Lodge (Oxfordshire).

The underlying service offering is residential addiction and dual-diagnosis treatment, combining medical detox, evidence-based psychotherapies (CBT, DBT), the 12-step approach, and holistic modalities (yoga, meditation, art therapy, one-to-one counselling). All sites carry CQC registration, and the network layers a free lifetime aftercare programme via the UKAT Alumni community plus a Family Recovery Programme. Core technology is limited to a content and contact-form website plus telephone-based admissions; no APIs, applications, or digital clinical platforms are disclosed.

Revenue is generated through private, fee-for-service residential treatment programmes, with quote-based, non-publicly-disclosed pricing set per facility and programme length. The go-to-market is sales-led direct-to-consumer: top-of-funnel awareness is driven by organic search positioning the brand as the "UK's #1 Resource" for dual diagnosis, with bottom-of-funnel conversion handled by a 24/7 in-house admissions team. There is no evidence of NHS commissioning, third-party referral partners, paid digital advertising, or external institutional funding; the company is privately held within the UKAT Group structure.
