accessing the service You can refer yourself, or somebody who is working with you can refer on your behalf. After we receive your referral, we will contact you and offer you an assessment the next working day. During your assessment we will establish what your needs and goals are, and start drawing up your recovery plan together. Our service is confidential, and we will ask your consent if we need to share any information, and explain the reason why. If we believe you or somebody else is in immediate danger, we may need to let other people know, but we will always try and explain this to you first. We will try and offer you appointments at a time and venue that is convenient to you. If you wish please bring a friend or family member or carer with you to your appointments, and they can be as involved in your recovery as you like.
