Support for those affected by substance use and addiction
We recognise that substance use and other addictions affect the user as well as their loved ones, families and friends. We work closely with trusted statutory partners and charities that are able to provide support, especially whilst we are all affected by the impact of Coronavirus.
We believe in reducing the harm caused by substance use and addiction rather than making judgments about those who need support and causing more harm due to stigma.
