Please support your local NHS Charity, caring for your community


Alcohol Care Team (ACT)

Our Alcohol Care Team (ACT) supports healthcare professionals and people admitted to our hospitals who are managing alcohol withdrawl syndrome. We are working hard to reduce the stigma of talking about alcohol habits, supporting people in the community, and reducing hospital admissions as a result of alcohol-related complications.

Please contact the team if you think you have a problem with alcohol – the sooner you get help, the better.

The service is available from 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday.

Stopping drinking alcohol suddenly can be dangerous. If you think you might be alcohol dependant, please call your GP or the following services for support and advice.
