We Need Your Views

For the first time, the 2010 drug strategy brought together all substance misuse interventions. That is, it includes treatment and support options that will address dependency to drugs, alcohol, 'legal highs' and over the counter medicines. The main aim of the strategy is to assist individuals to fully recover from their addictions.

We want to know what you think, and you can help us by taking part in this consultation and completing this questionnaire.

The Consultation will start October 1st 2013 for 12 weeks

If you have any queries about this questionnaire please telephone the Drug & Alcohol Action Team on 0161 253 7926. Alternatively, if you or a family member would like more information on how to get help with drug or alcohol dependency please telephone Bury Substance Misuse Service on: 0161 253 6488.
