Drug Strategy for North Tyneside 2024-2025
Preventing and reducing the harm caused by drugs requires a whole system approach that focuses on addressing the root cause of substance misuse rather than treating the symptoms in isolation.
The Strategy for North Tyneside aligns with the national drugs strategy and the three themes within ‘Harm to Hope’ which are:
-
Breaking drug supply chains
-
Delivering a world-class treatment and recovery system
-
Achieving a generational shift in the demand for drugs
Our vision is to prevent, treat and reduce health and social-related harms caused by drug misuse to individuals, families, and communities in North Tyneside.
