II.1.4) Short description
The overall aim of the Rochdale Recovery offer is to provide a high quality, recovery focused
programme of activity across Rochdale, that will support people to become free from
dependency from substances and enable them to thrive. The service will work closely with
drug and alcohol treatment providers and others who provide support to those in active drug
and alcohol use to provide an offer of hope of recovery with meaningful activities to support
recovery in everyday life.
The service will adopt a holistic, and whole family, approach to service delivery to ensure that
the wider determinants of health are supported. Establishing effective partnerships with wider
stakeholders is crucial to providing a comprehensive service offer.
The priority outcomes the service will be expected to support the wider system in achieving
are:
• A reduction in levels of drug and alcohol related harm.
• A reduction in drug and alcohol related offending.
• An increase in the number of people in and sustaining recovery.
• A reduction in drug and alcohol related deaths.
• Contribute to the reduction in demand for other services linked to complex drug and
alcohol issues (e.g., reduction in the number of emergency department attendances
and admissions by those who have multiple attendances and repeat presentations to
adult social care).
• Contribute to a reduction in health inequalities
