This page is for you if you are concerned about yourself and would like to seek help with your own behaviour.
We offer support to anyone who feels their addiction or substance use is problematic. We don’t require people to give up using a substance or doing something addictive such as gambling altogether if that’s not what they want to do. We focus on the reduction of harm to themselves or others.
​
We believe everyone is capable of change.
​
Often we help clients uncover the reasons for their substance use and find other safer, healthier, more effective ways to manage their mental health. Our clients learn to live in a more resourceful, satisfying way without relying on addiction.
​
Confidentiality
​
You can be absolutely confident that any information you give us will be closely guarded, according to strict data protection rules. We will not share or disclose anything about you unless you give your consent or we are compelled to do so by law.
First Steps
Getting to this page is a big first step.
The next step is to get in touch with us with some details of your situation and we have found that the best and least stressful way for you to do this is by filling in a form. You can find the form by clicking on the button below.
Please complete the form as much as you can and we will be in touch very soon. Some of the questions have to be completed but others are optional.
If you don't feel comfortable filling in any part of the form, please call the CHANGE line on 01539 266061 and someone will talk you through the information we need and why we need it.
​
One of the things we need is an email address so that we can contact you discretely and so we can identify you confidentially in our system.
Please be assured that the subject line of any emails sent will be sensitive to your need to keep your relationship with CHANGE entirely confidential. If you are concerned about this, please get in touch.
We suggest that you DO NOT use a business or work email.
If you don't have a personal email address, these can be created and used completely free of charge at several providers and you can find two of them by clicking on Gmail or Outlook.
​
You can be completely confident that we will never disclose anything you tell us unless required to do so by law.
Depending on your answers, you will then get the opportunity to tell us more about yourself and the issues you are facing by completing a further form which asks for a bit more detail. A link will be sent to you by email, or you will be prompted to go to this form when you complete the first one.
We offer the opportunity to give us information using forms because you can complete them in your own time and we have discovered that they reduce any negative feelings or stress you might feel.
If you would rather talk to someone, you can phone the CHANGE line or request a callback.
