    Inroads Islington is a psychosocial support and prescribing outreach service in Islington.

    We work with people who are rough sleeping or are vulnerably housed to address their drug or alcohol issues.

    Together we help people so that they feel able to enter structured treatment and support.

    Any professional can refer into our service.

    We have been absolutely blown away by the professionalism, commitment, and
    trauma-informed practice of your team.
