Who We Are
Making positive changes around drugs and alcohol in Lincolnshire
We work with people across the county to support them in making a positive change to their alcohol or drug use. From harm reduction advice to personalised treatment and recovery programmes, our experienced, friendly team are here to help.
This service is delivered in partnership with Turning Point, Double Impact and Framework.
If you are under 18, we have a specialist young persons’ service called Horizon.
If you are affected by somebody's else's substance use, we have a friends and family service called Beacon.
How can we support you?
We work with people from all walks of life to support them with their alcohol or drug use. Many of our team have lived experience, so we understand what you’re going through and will work closely with you to create a treatment plan.
That might include advice and information, prescribed medication, detox, one-to-one support, or joining a group of likeminded individuals to meet with on a regular basis. We also offer mental health services, social prescribing and a dedicated employment service to help you to secure your next role.
We're here for every step of your journey
We work in partnership with a number of local organisations and so with your agreement, we can refer you to other organisations who can offer further support to power your recovery.
We also recognise that it’s not everyone’s goal to stop using alcohol or drugs, so a key part of our service is offering harm reduction advice to help people keep themselves and others as safe as possible. Each of our hubs has a Needle Syringe Provision (NSP), and we supply Naloxone both in person and via our Click and Deliver service.
How We Support You
Detoxification, Rehabilitation and Harm Reduction
Detoxification and Rehabilitation
If you need to access drug and alcohol detoxification (detox) or rehabilitation (rehab) as part of your plan, the focus will be on improving physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing so your long-term recovery can be achieved.
We can either support you to access this whilst living at home or in a residential detox/rehab facility.
You will be supported to manage your withdrawal symptoms and will be supported to make positive changes in your everyday life.
Reduce the Harm of Drugs and Alcohol
We know that people may need, or may choose to, continue using alcohol and drugs while getting help from our service. For some people it may be dangerous to stop completely until they are ready, or they may need specialist treatment to help them stop safely.
We also recognise that it is not everyone’s goal to stop using alcohol or drugs, so we also provide harm reduction advice to help people keep themselves and others as safe as possible.
Criminal Justice
We have a dedicated team who support people who are in contact with the criminal justice system, based in the police stations, courts, probation, and prisons to connect with people when they need our support.
We aim to support people who may be in an offending cycle. By offering holistic care around their health and wellbeing and supporting them to reduce their drug and alcohol use, we support people to live independent, crime-free lives and reduce reoffending.
Prescribing
Specialist Prescribing
To establish whether this is appropriate for you, you will have a comprehensive clinical assessment with our team of doctors, nurses, and pharmacists.
Following this assessment, if appropriate, you may be safely started on prescribed medication under the supervision of our clinical team and your pharmacy if appropriate.
Social Prescribing
We provide support to improve the practical, social, and emotional needs that affect health and wellbeing.
We can create a personalised plan to connect you to groups and services in your local community, which might include activities such as volunteering, art, gardening, exercise, cookery, or writing.
Ongoing Support
Mental Health Support
We have a dedicated team who support individuals to address both mental health issues and drug and alcohol problems alongside each other. We provide some support in house to help with things like anxiety and depression, and we have a team of psychologists and psychotherapists who can provide specialist support.
Support for Young People
We support young people and their families to deal with the challenges they face around drugs, alcohol and associated issues.
If you want to make changes, whether it’s to cut down, quit, gain control, or just to learn more about the risks and effects of taking drugs and alcohol we’re here to support.

Peer Mentors
Our Peer Mentors are people who have struggled with drugs and alcohol themselves. Peer Mentors are experts by experience, who we have trained to share hope and inspiration with others.
Your Recovery Worker can organise a one-to-one with a Peer Mentor, who will empower you on your journey of positive change.
Employment Support
We have specialist employment workers who offer intensive, individually tailored support to help you to find the right job, with ongoing support to help you keep your job, or find a different one if things aren’t working out.
We help with practical things like CVs, applying for jobs and preparing for interviews, but also support you to look after your own wellbeing at work.
Rough Sleeping Support
We recognise that people experiencing homelessness often have multiple complex problems that they need support with. We have a dedicated team who support people affected by rough sleeping based within the community, in hostels and in day centres.
We work with a variety of organisations supporting people on the streets to ensure we reach as many people who need support as possible.
Preventing Overdose
Free Naloxone kits and training
To help reduce drug-related deaths we provide free overdose response Naloxone kits to people at risk of an opioid overdose, their family and friends, and member of the public who could help prevent an overdose.
Through our Click and Deliver service, these are delivered to an address of your choice in plain packaging. Order yours now and help save lives.
We offer regular Overdose Awareness and Naloxone training sessions for Lincolnshire professionals who support people at risk of an overdose.
These can be booked via our Eventbrite page, and are free of charge to attend.
Substance Cards
We’ve created a new series of substance information cards, designed to share clear, current information and reliable harm reduction advice to help keep you informed and safe.
The cards have been written by our expert teams and shaped by those with lived experience, meaning it’s advice you can trust.
