Chart Kirklees

CHART Kirklees works with people who have problems with drugs or alcohol by supporting them to change their behaviour and achieve their recovery goals.

Every year, Lifeline Kirklees works with hundreds of people who have problems with drugs or alcohol in supporting them to change their behaviour and achieve their recovery goals. We provide help for individuals, families and communities throughout Kirklees who have been affected by substance misuse. Our drug and alcohol services started in 1985 as a small organisation called Unit 51. In 2000 we became part of the Lifeline Project.

A range of alcohol and drug services are available in Kirklees through our support centres in Huddersfield and Dewsbury town centres as well as in some GP surgeries and health centres. Both of our centres are easily accessible by public transport and have wheelchair accessibility. We provide an evening service on Tuesdays for those who work during the day and we also work with people who may find it difficult to come into the service at all, perhaps due to mental or physical health issues, through working with them in their home or in the community.
