We are a team dedicated to supporting young people and families who may be struggling with drugs or alcohol. We support young people aged under 25 years old.
Reaching out for support may be difficult, and you may have lots of questions. We hope you can find the answers you are looking for below. If not, please contact us, we are a friendly service and would be happy to chat with you.
Useful information
You can meet with your keyworker wherever you are most comfortable, this could be at school, your home or even a coffee shop. We would like you to feel as comfortable as possible, so let us know what is most convenient for you.
We are here for you. We think it's great you are interested in support for your alcohol or drug use, and there are a variety of ways we can help with this. For example, we can offer one to one support, advice, and guidance as well as education.
You will be assigned a keyworker who will offer you support, advice and guidance. It will be the same keyworker you meet each time, so you are able to build a good working relationship with them and trust your keyworker. This also means your keyworker gets to know you well and can support you as best they can.
We are a confidential service, so we will not share what you speak with us about. The only time we would do this is if we felt you were at risk of harm or someone around you is at risk of harm.
If you are over the age of 16, you do not need parental consent to receive support from us. We would however encourage you to share how you are doing and feeling with trusted people in your life, this can help with recovery.
If you are under 16 years of age, we would need consent from a parent or guardian, please don’t worry about this, we know many parents and carers would want to support you as best they can.
You can refer a young person to our service by completing the referral form - see professionals tab. Please send this to [email protected]. We also have a community educator who can offer assemblies or training sessions on drugs and alcohol.
