NEDAC
Complex and Multiple Needs Service
From NEDAC’s inception, as Support Help and Advice on Drug Addiction (SHADA) in 1983, our motivation has been to provide the local community with a person-centred service for those affected by substance use. Over the past, almost 40 years, the service has continually developed in response to client needs. In 2016, we established our Complex and Multiple Needs Service, for those with co-occurring mental health and substance use issues, combined with social and physical health problems, who struggle to engage with and/or be retained in, treatment services.
We would like to invite you to join our Board of Directors to support the continued development and direction of the work we do. We meet quarterly, online for the past two years, with any additional business dealt with by phone and email.
Stuart Anderson, Service Manager.
