How this fits your options
This is a community-based drug and alcohol service. Treatment is delivered on an outpatient basis — assessment, keyworker sessions, prescribing where clinically appropriate, group and 1-to-1 recovery work. Most community services accept self-referral (no GP letter needed) and are free at the point of use. Waits from first contact to first appointment are typically 1–4 weeks depending on locality.
We don't rank clinics or take commissions to promote any single provider — we refer based on clinical fit and availability. If you want us to help you weigh The Agnes Unit against the NHS route or another CQC-regulated option, use the form below.
