The Department for Health is seeking a second Delivery Manager to work within the newly established National Support Team (NST) for Alcohol Harm Reduction.
The National Support Team for Alcohol Harm Reduction will work with selected local organisations to develop their capacity to meet the PSA target: to achieve a minimum of 1% reduction in the rate of hospital admissions per 100,000 population for alcohol related harm.
This NST is one of a number of teams working to support local areas and partnerships that are struggling to achieve their targets in relation to Choosing Health priorities such as Sexual Health, Tobacco Control and Teenage Pregnancy. This is done through regular structured team visits to local areas to identify barriers to delivery and propose solutions.
Further details:
The Drug and Alcohol Action Team (DAAT) is responsible for delivering the National Drug Strategy and the Alcohol Harm Reduction Strategy at a local level. In Wigan, the DAAT is embedded within the Community Safety Team which services the wider partnership in tackling crime and disorder.
