Mental Health Addiction
Welcome to Six
The Mental Health & Addiction Experts
Founded by former Arsenal and England football captain Tony Adams MBE, who had the courage to deal with his own addiction and mental health troubles at the height of his playing career, Six was set up to support and promote mental wellbeing by providing comprehensive mental health and addiction services for both businesses and individuals.
Having successfully undertaken his own recovery, Tony started Sporting Chance Clinic to support those sportspeople like him, who needed the careful attention of holistic addiction-related care. For over 25 years he has dedicated himself to giving back to the programme that saved his life. Six is born off the back of Sporting Chance to help even more people find their way to strong mental health and wellbeing.
Six's Services
We're not just your average EAP... This bespoke workplace wellbeing package provides holistic support for businesses and their people giving access to fast, compassionate and effective mental health and addiction support.
When someone calls our helpline, they don’t reach a call centre agent following a script. They connect directly to a doctor or registered mental health nurse, ensuring immediate professional care. From there, we place employees with the best specialist therapist - often within 24 hours. EAPs, by comparison, rely on algorithms, long waiting times and GP referrals that delay vital support.
Our addiction recovery services are delivering unprecedented success rates. With our Staying Stopped programme seeing a 78% success rate vs just 20% in traditional rehab facilities. We take a holistic approach addressing the whole person, not just the surface problem so employees can recover, rebuild and thrive.
We go beyond crisis response. Our Six Academy empowers managers and teams by raising awareness around mental health and addiction through engaging in-person and online webinars and campaigns that can be personalised according to your business need. From neurodiversity and inclusion to menopause and workplace wellbeing, we equip leaders with the knowledge to support your staff effectively.
