NAXOLONE SUPPORT & AVAILABILITY!
Naloxone is a drug that can reverse the effects of opioids, such as heroin, methadone, opium, codeine, morphine, and buprenorphine. Naloxone doses can even save someone’s life if it’s used quickly after they’ve overdosed on opioids and gives extra time for emergency help to arrive. The effects of naloxone don’t last very long (about 8 to 30 minutes) so it’s important to always call 999 and ask for an ambulance when you use it. Ambulance crews have been using naloxone in emergencies for many years. We want to make sure that anyone who needs it, has it to hand and knows how to use it.

Helping someone else
It can be hard to know what to do when supporting someone with a mental health problem. Our information includes helpful advice on giving support.
Drug Related Death/Non Fatal Overdose
Death by overdose is loaded with social and moral stigmas, in addition to strong feelings of anger, helplessness, guilt and shame within families. Families do not always know that a loved one is using drugs, so when a death by overdose occurs, it deprives family members of preventative action.
Boot Camp Offers Recovery Support
Boot Camp provides a rapid therapeutic intervention for those wanting recovery from substance misuse. The Boot Camp offers recovery support in your own environment and aims to help people to understand their addiction, develop healthy coping mechanisms and remain in long-term recovery.
Telephone Counselling
The Telephone Counselling Service (TCS) was launched in 2010 to address the obstacles of attending face to face sessions offered by other agencies, including disabilities; lack of access to suitable transport or childcare; difficult working patterns; chaotic lifestyles or social shame and anxiety.
Help and Volunteer
To take an active role in the charity activities. Responsible for governance, safeguarding and strategic direction of the charity with other board members. To work in partnership and to support contractors and volunteers helping them to achieve the aims of the organisation.
Fundraising Walk for SDAC: The Camino from Santiago
I am raising money by walking the Camino from Porto (Portugal) to Santiago (Spain) approx 170 miles, carrying my own backpack all the way on this pilgrimage. I hope, that by making my intention, to raise funds and challenge myself at 58 years of age, to walk this journey, I will raise funds for this charitable cause, that is very important to me, so please donate and help me reach my target in aid of SURREY DRUG AND ALCOHOL CARE LIMITED. Anything you can contribute towards helping me achieve my target will be massively appreciated.
The money will ensure that anyone within Surrey area, struggling with mental health/substance misuse and significant others can access therapeutic counselling and group support for complex bereavement, abstinent bootcamp and significant others (family/loved ones).
