Get Support
If you’re looking for support with drugs, alcohol, gambling, smoking, vaping, or related mental health challenges, you’re in the right place. Whether this is your first time reaching out or you’ve worked with services before, we’ll meet you where you are and help you find the right support for you.
You don’t need to have all the answers, and you don’t need to know exactly what help you want. We’ll work it out together.
Alcohol Support
If alcohol is starting to affect your health, relationships, work or day to day life, we’re here to help. Whether you want to cut down, stop drinking, or just talk things through, our team can support you without judgement and at a pace that feels right for you.
Drug Support
We support people who are using drugs and want help to make changes, reduce harm or work towards recovery. Whether your drug use feels manageable or has become difficult, we can help you explore your options and find the right support for you.
Make a Referral
Getting support from Wirral Ways is simple. You can refer yourself, or someone else can refer you with your consent. Once we receive your referral, a member of the team will be in touch to talk about what support might help.
Appointments
We offer a range of appointments to help you access support in a way that works for you. Depending on your needs, this might be in person, over the phone, online, or at one of our local sites across Wirral.
How We Can Support You
Support at Wirral Ways is shaped around you. We can help with alcohol or drug use, harm reduction, mental health and wellbeing, recovery planning, support for families, and access to other services that may help you move forward.
Support for Loved Ones
When someone else’s alcohol or drug use affects your life, you may need support too. We offer advice, guidance and support for family members, partners, friends and carers, helping you better understand what’s happening and how to look after yourself as well.
Smoking & Vaping
If you want to stop smoking or cut down, we can help you take the next step. We offer support, advice and practical tools to help you manage cravings, build confidence and work towards a smoke free life.
Gambling Harms
If gambling is affecting your finances, relationships, wellbeing or peace of mind, support is available. We can help you understand the impact, look at ways to reduce harm, and connect you with the right help for your situation.
Harm Reduction
You do not have to be ready to stop using alcohol or drugs to get support. Harm reduction is about helping you stay safer, reduce risks and make informed choices, with practical advice and support that meets you where you are.
Mental Health Support
Alcohol, drugs and mental health often affect each other. We can support you with your wellbeing as part of your recovery journey, and help you access the right services if you need extra support with your mental health.
Our Sites
Wirral Ways offers support from a number of sites across Wirral. Our locations are designed to be welcoming, accessible and easy to reach, so you can get the help you need in a place that works for you.
What to Expect When You Visit
Visiting a service for the first time can feel like a big step. When you come to Wirral Ways, you’ll be welcomed by a friendly team who will listen, explain what support is available, and help you understand what happens next.
