Floating Support

Our Floating Support service helps individuals, couples, and families (16+) in Darlington affected by substance or alcohol misuse. We work 1-to-1 to reduce risks, build life skills, and support independent living.

Support may include:

  • Tackling substance use and relapse prevention
  • Finding and sustaining housing with councils or landlords
  • Reducing crime and offending linked to substance misuse
  • Accessing benefits and managing finances
  • Improving health, wellbeing, and social care access
  • Developing skills, education, training, and employment opportunities

Support is client-led and holistic—you set the goals, we walk alongside you. Hours are flexible and gradually reduce as independence grows.

Accessing support:

  • Self-refer by calling 01325 366397
  • Ask a professional (e.g. Housing Options, Probation, Social Services) to refer
  • Or drop into our Head Office (Roadway House, Beaumont Street West, DL1 5SX) on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9am–12pm
