Description

Lot 1: The aim of the service is to: • transform community services in order to bridge the gap between the needs for services and meet the changing substance misuse needs of residents; • embed a culture of active and inventive methods of service user involvement which permeate services delivery; • embody an ethos of ambition for individual success and demonstrate a proactive approach using entrepreneurship, in developing opportunities for individual success and sustainable recovery. The provider(s) will transform adult drug and alcohol service provision and embed a whole systems approach in order to increase the number of people able to achieve sustained recovery from dependence by providing individual support and treatment packages of care. The provider(s) will be required to work in partnership with other providers in the treatment system to transform public services in order to benefit local residents. A key feature of the new service will be the requirement to work across networks in order to improve joint working and integrate pathways. Our services will be more accessible and go out into the community to support people in their own homes and local areas.
