The Alcohol & Drug Service have been delivering effective drug and alcohol service for over 35 years. If you someone know a struggling with substance misuse, We can help. We support people to make positive change.

Drugs & alcohol

For many people with a problem with drug or alcohol use, it can feel very isolated and lonely. It can feel like no one understands, or even that you are somehow different or worth less than other people. You are not.

Business & training

Drug and alcohol use is a growing concern for all employers large or small and their employees. If not managed well, organisations stand to lose a wealth of experience and an employee stands to lose their career.

Work & volunteer with us

This is the most exciting time in the field for a generation and there are now more opportunities than ever. So if you want to make a real difference in the lives of real people, now is a great time to work or volunteer with us.
