MYPAS’ East Lothian Young People’s Drug and Alcohol service is taking referrals for online support

Our project workers continue to provide friendly, confidential and non-judgemental drug and alcohol supports for young people in East Lothian (ages 12 to 19).

We are currently offering telephone and online one to one support through Zoom.

Referrals can come from professionals, parents/carers as well as young people themselves. Young people newly referred won’t have to wait to get support (there is not currently a waiting list for this service).

Practicalities

For the Zoom meetings, young people would need;

• a stable internet connection or phone signal
• a microphone
• headphones or earphones
• a safe space to talk privately without being disturbed during support sessions

For further information on the service and how best to refer, please go to http://www.mypas.co.uk/east-lothian-drug-and-alcohol-support-service/ or phone MYPAS on 0131 454 0757.
