Addaction is set to deliver alcohol and drug services across Cornwall for the next five years.

The national charity has been delivering the services in the county for the past five years to both adults and young people, and has been successful in retaining the contract with Cornwall Council.

The contracts are worth £5.3m a year for the adults service and £335,000 for the young people’s service – delivered by YZUP.

Addaction has bases in Redruth, Penzance, St Austell, Liskeard, Bodmin and Truro - where the YZUP service is also based.

The charity provides free, confidential and non-judgmental support to anyone affected by their own or someone else’s alcohol or drug use.
