The Amy Winehouse Foundation has teamed up with Centra Care and Support to launch Amy's Place, a women only recovery house for those overcoming drug and alcohol addiction.

Jane Winehouse of the Amy Winehouse Foundation commented 'This project will make such a profound difference to so many young women, enabling them to have a safe environment in which to re-build their lives and put into practice all the learning they have acquired through their treatment journey. Fresh starts are difficult to make; full of challenges, but at Amy's Place we will give young women the tools and support to help them make this a reality'. Amy's Place opens August 22 in east London.
