ADP Website Launched

Dundee Alcohol and Drug Partnership (ADP) has launched a new online resource providing a range of information for the public and workforce about local services.  

The ADP website has been developed by partners with input from people with lived experience of substance use as well as local communities.  

The website provides wide ranging information on drugs and alcohol, including help for people who are looking for appropriate services and support to assist them, their family, and friends on their recovery journey.  

It provides updates on what is happening in Dundee’s communities and how to get involved, as well as giving advice on appropriate language to avoid stigma.  

It will also bring together resources for the workforce, highlighting the values of the Partnership and signposting to helpful information, key documents and learning resources.  

ADP interim chair Dr Emma Fletcher said: “A huge amount of hard work has gone into developing this comprehensive website and I’m delighted to see it formally launched today.  

“I know that people working in the recovery community will find it beneficial in terms of bringing together so many useful resources in one easy-to-access place.  

“And it is another way that people looking for help can find out where to access it.  

“We want this to be a website that members of the public visit regularly too. It’s a great way to learn more about the range of work that’s going on to address Dundee’s deep-rooted challenges.  

“It will help citizens understand the context and complexities of the journey we are on, as well as the part we can all play in making Dundee a supportive city for all.”  

The Dundee ADP is also responsible for developing a local multi-agency Strategic Framework. Both the website and the framework aim to reduce harm from alcohol and drug use, support wellbeing and the recovery of people who experience longer-term challenges.
