Substance Use

We commission an integrated treatment and recovery service for drug and alcohol misuse for adults and young people.

The service is provided by Turning Point in partnership with Anglia Care Trust and Iceni.

Turning Point and their partners will work with anyone who is affected by drugs and alcohol looking for support to make a change. There are a variety of person-centred treatment options, and they will support you to find the right option for you.

Young People’s Service

There is a dedicated young people’s service for young people under 25 who would like to make changes to their drug or alcohol use. The young people’s service is an outreach service, so Turning Point can meet the young person at a location and time that suits them. They offer one to one sessions to help educate, inform and support change.

Are you affected by someone else’s drug or alcohol use?

If someone close to you is struggling with drug and alcohol use, it can be a distressing and difficult time. Turning Point can support you to increase your knowledge and understanding of their issues, and present different ways of responding to behaviours so you feel more equipped to deal with your circumstances.
