NewLink Wales

Substance Misuse Volunteering & Training

Welcome to NewLink Wales

NewLink Wales is an independent substance misuse organisation operating throughout Wales. We link:

  • Volunteers to agencies
  • Agencies to training
  • Communities to services

We work in partnership with Welsh organisations and agencies operating frontline services to substance misusers.

We recruit, train, place and support volunteers with agencies throughout Wales whose remit includes substance misuse.

We provide training for existing workers and professionals working in agencies whose client group may include substance misusers, offering accredited and DANOS-matched courses.

The MILE programme has been developed to harness the valuable experiences of ex-users.

The NewSteps Service User Volunteer Project provides volunteering opportunities in environmental projects to those still in treatment.

Our Services to Black and Minority Ethnic Communities (BME) are delivered through our Community Engagement Projects providing support through various services to individuals, families and communities affected by the issues of substance misuse.

 

You can read more about our objectives here.

We have grown and developed over what seems a short period of time, and we hope to continue to consult and work in partnership with agencies to provide the highest of standards in all our services. The following pages will give you more information about us.
