Drinkwise Derby will provide access to online advice and self-help, or brief interventions with a specialist worker for those who need them.
The service will be provided by Derby Drug and Alcohol Recovery Service (DDARS), a partnership which offers advice, support and treatment to help people make positive changes in their drug or alcohol use. The partnership is made up of Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Phoenix Futures and Aquarius.
Drinkwise Derby particularly seeks to help those in need of low level support – that is, those who are drinking a little more than the recommended weekly amount or who are concerned about their drinking, perhaps because of an alcohol-related accident or injury or because of how their drinking is making them feel.
Research indicates that the number of people with a lower level need for support has increased during the pandemic, with 28% of people in one survey reporting that they have increased their alcohol use. Drinkwise Derby will seek to help those with a lower level need to prevent the escalation of alcohol use.
Drug and alcohol support services for the County including Chesterfield. Substitute prescribing and detoxification for alcohol are available via the website, or call for self referral.
