By joining our teams of passionate individuals, you will be contributing to making this happen.  You can really make a difference by believing in our service users and their ability to make positive changes when they dont always believe in themselves.

Leeds City Council secured almost £3million in enhanced funding from the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities to improve drug and alcohol treatment provision across the city.
