Cost of dwelling crisis drives demand for dependancy services
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, October 30, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — ADAPT, the charity offering free important support services to recovering addicts, broadcasts that it has seen a 75% increase in demand for its services during the last twelve months. This worrying development is about towards a backdrop of a vital discount in nationwide funding for the support of these rebuilding their lives with out illicit substances, and the Centre for Social Justice labelling the UK as the “addiction capital of Europe”.
ADAPT (Addicts are People Too) supplies indispensable housing and a structured remedy programme for these battling with dependancy points, as properly as nationwide support for households affected by dependancy of every type. With 1 in 9 recovering addicts struggling to search out sufficient housing, the necessity for ADAPT has by no means been larger.
Commenting on the present crisis, Edwina Cobb, Founder and MD of ADAPT, stated:
“At the beginning of Addiction Awareness Week, it’s important that we spotlight how the price of dwelling crisis is driving a large rise in dependancy points throughout the UK. Many of the locations the place folks could have traditionally been in a position to flip to get assist are now not obtainable because of a lack of funding support.
“This is a perfect storm and risks seeing more and more vulnerable people being left behind by society. ADAPT, is unique in that we are providing a mix of safe, independent, housing and access to a proven treatment programme. However, there is a long waiting list for what we offer and we are currently only able to support a fraction of those who are reaching out for help. Up and down the country, as a result of the funding cuts and increasing demand, the best way to get clean is in prison, sadly. In the immediate term we need access to more housing and financial support, whilst an urgent review of national and local funding structures and support for organisations like ADAPT is essential.”
