Branching Out – Tameside
How to contact us and make a referral
When you contact us, one of our friendly team members will be available to discuss next steps with you. You will usually be offered an appointment on your own, or you can choose to involve other family members or professionals if you would like, as we understand that you may feel anxious or nervous.
We welcome referrals from young people, family, friends and professionals. Please note that we require the young person's consent if you are referring them to us.
You can give us a call on 0161 672 9420, email [email protected], or fill in our online referral form. If you’re looking for advice or information on substances in the evenings or weekends, you can speak to the webchat team in confidence here.
