  • Provide advice and consultancy to staff within mental health and substance misuse services to support their work with service users who experience both mental health problems and substance use problems.
  • Deliver core skills and advanced skills training to staff within their mental health and substance misuse services to ensure practitioners are competent in the skills required to work with services users with a dual diagnosis
  • Promote effective multi-agency work between mental health services and substance misuse services in Manchester.
