For many people with a problem with drug or alcohol use, it can feel very isolated and lonely. It can feel like no one understands, or even that you are somehow different or worth less than other people. You are not.
Drug and alcohol use is a growing concern for all employers large or small and their employees. If not managed well, organisations stand to lose a wealth of experience and an employee stands to lose their career.
This is the most exciting time in the field for a generation and there are now more opportunities than ever. So if you want to make a real difference in the lives of real people, now is a great time to work or volunteer with us.

Thousands of people from every walk of life struggle with alcohol or drug misuse in our region. The social, health, employment and economic costs of these addictions are high – not just for the individuals, but also their families, communities and the NHS. Breaking the cycle can seem almost impossible. But we know how to help. This is why The Alcohol & Drug Service is here.
For over 35 years, we have delivered effective interventions in towns and cities. We’ve helped thousands of local people on the road to recovery, across Humberside, Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, as we help the national strategy on a local basis. We ensure that the organisation is run well and we are a part of the Investors in People scheme, a quality framework which is independently audited.
