Who We Are

We offer advice and support to help people stop or reduce their drug and alcohol use, and minimise its impact on their health and well-being through our service hubs located in the Wakefield District.

We work with over 2,500 service users, delivering a wide range of treatment methods including one-to-one recovery work sessions, recovery planning, harm reduction advice, needle exchange, group work programmes, open-access drop-ins, prescribing clinics, and more.

We offer weekly late-night provision for those who may want to reach us. Please contact us for more information regarding this.

What we offer, in a short video.

How We Support You

We tailor packages to meet individual needs offering MOPSI (Models of Psychosocial Interventions) group work, mindfulness interventions, assistance with physical and mental health needs, in-house Specialist Social Worker support and a robust care pathway for those needing specialist dual-diagnosis interventions.


One of our team will support you to build a treatment plan based on your circumstances. To get the best of our treatment options you will need to commit to attending the sessions.

Online Support

Our online tool My Turning Point provides 24/7 access to a range of guided and self-help sessions that can help with your drug and alcohol use, as well as emotional heath and other wellbeing subjects. Accessible on computers, tablet and some smartphones.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is about learning to live in the present, rather than in the past or an imagined future. Being mindful can increase awareness of your emotions and can support you to manage cravings, which makes slips and lapses less likely.

Reclaim

Reclaim is designed to support people who are using drugs and are considering making changes in their use. It can help you develop skills and commitment to making positive changes to your
drug use.

Criminal Justice Service

Delivering Drug and Alcohol Treatment Requirements across the district.

Resolution and Care

Resolution/Alcohol & Wellbeing

Designed to help you understand more about your drinking and how to cut down or stop. We offer two alcohol groups, your suitability will be depend on your drinking habits, both running for 8 weeks.

Resilience

Detoxification can be daunting and we are here to support you. ‘Resilience’, is a workshop designed to help you to overcome any barriers to coming off substitute medication, providing help to manage the physical and psychological process of detoxification.

Recovery Skills

A programme based on Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT); helping you set goals, develop coping strategies and support networks. ACT has been shown to be effective in supporting people with their mental health.

Harm Reduction

We 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. 

Preventing Overdose 

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 members 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 people in Wakefield and these can be booked via our Eventbrite page, and are free of charge to attend.
