This service helps people who have issues with drug and/or alcohol use who want to make positive changes to their life. We also offer support to the family and friends of people who are worried about their loved ones’ substance use or have been affected by it.
When individuals first get in touch with our Thurrock service, we’ll do an assessment to understand what interventions will work best, before putting together an individual treatment plan.
