drug and alcohol treatments
Islington Council is implementing a new strategy for integrated drug and alcohol services to enhance treatment and recovery support.
Islington Council's Executive approved a new strategy for integrated community drug and alcohol services in March 2026, aiming to enhance treatment and recovery support for residents. This approach, shaped by extensive consultation with service users, will externally commission a comprehensive service, retaining elements such as family support, weekend services, and whole-family approaches.
The strategy builds on recent transformations in local services, focusing on comprehensive treatment and recovery. Drug and alcohol treatments encompass medical and therapeutic interventions for individuals struggling with substance abuse. No upcoming council meetings are currently scheduled to discuss this topic.
