Frequently asked questions
We understand you may have questions about our support. We've answered some of the most frequently asked questions to help provide some guidance.
Do I have to pay to use the service?
No! Our drug and alcohol support services are completely free of charge.
Will anyone find out I am using your service?
All your information is kept safe and not shared outside of our organisation without your explicit permission. We are only required to share information with other professionals if there is a serious risk to you or someone else.
I know someone who might have a problem. Can I refer them?
It’s brilliant that you can see how support could benefit the person – but they must be aware of the referral. You can accompany the person to support them attending. We also understand that substance use can affect friends and family, so we offer a dedicated service for the family, friends, and carers of the people we support.
