Drugs and alcohol

Local and online support for young people and substance use.

As Substance Prevention Workers, we will work with you on a 1 to 1 basis, in relation to substance use.

Accessing support

If you need support, you can self-refer.

Parents and carers can make a referral on behalf of their young person.

Once we have received your referral, we will:

  • arrange an appointment to visit you
  • complete an assessment of your alcohol/substance use
  • plan the sessions we will deliver, tailored to your individual need

At the session, we will provide and share:

  • appropriate education and harm reduction advice
  • related risk-taking behaviour
