Axis Community Engagement Project

Are you in need of someone to talk to?

Our friendly approachable team are here to talk and discuss issues that are bothering you. You may be experiencing difficulties yourself or it may be a friend or family member. We can provide one to one support in a culturally sensitive manner. We can help and support you in getting the most appropriate help available and advise on how to access the right services and treatment. If support is needed for families or groups we are here.

Do you need information and advice?

We can provide confidential and culturally appropriate information to young people from the age of 12 and over and communities that need to find out more about the issues surrounding drug and alcohol misuse.

We come to community group settings and run education sessions.

We hold information desks in your local settings to provide information on the different substances, different services available and to answer questions. To find out where your local session is being held please contact us.

Service User Social Support Group

We can provide group sessions, social activities and workshops that will help build a support network for those in need.

Information about drugs and alcohol is available in:

  • English
  • Urdu
  • Bengali
  • Arabic
  • Somali
  • French
  • Farsi
