Wize-Up - Thurrock

We are a free and confidential drug and alcohol service for young people under 18 (including young offenders) and families in Thurrock.

We are a team of substance misuse specialists who won’t judge or tell you what to do. We’re here to listen and support you, and help you to make positive choices and changes. We also work with young people affected by parental/carer’s substance misuse. We are an outreach service, and we are more than happy to visit you wherever it is most convenient for you. We can meet you at your home, in school/college, at a local library or anywhere else that you feel comfortable.

"The service has helped me give up my habit. The workers are good, friendly easy to talk to and they don't make me feel patronized. Even if I am in a bad mood at the start of a meeting I feel better by the end."
