A
leading Substance Misuse Charity in London
Our Aims on
this site are to provide information on who we are, what we do
and links to useful contacts in and around our field.
Our free
and confidential services are primarily aimed at the
local communities in East London but many of our services go further
afield too
Anyone affected
by a drinking problem can gain access to our broad range of services
and programmes such as those listed on the left of the page.
We also have
strong links with other social care organisation & professionals,
statutory bodies and community groups.
Alcohol East
was formed in April 1997 as a merger between two existing alcohol
agencies: Newham Alcohol Advisory Services set up originally in
1980 and Tower Hamlets Community Alcohol Team. Following the securing
of funding for our alcohol services as well as for a Structured
Drug Day programme we became Drug and Alcohol Service for London
(DASL) in April 2003.
Since the
beginning, we have gone from strength-to-strength! Each year,
expanding on our experienced and quality counsellors, trainers
and support staff to give you the user direct access to our service.
Our range
of services are broadening to involve work around other social
issues affecting the lives and needs of an ever increasing and
diverse community.
Look around
our site to see
if we can help you in any way
