Lincolnshire County Council (LCC) is in the process of re-commissioning and procuring contracts to deliver its commissioned Substance Misuse Family and Affected Others Services when the current arrangements conclude on 31st March 2025.

In recognition that substance use can have a devastating impact on families and those close to the substance user, Lincolnshire County Council wishes to commission an all age specialist Substance Use Family and Affected Others Support Service. The new service will build upon the interim arrangements that have been put in place which have ensured a gap in provision has been filled so that families and affected others can access vital support that improves their health and wellbeing outcomes.

The Provider is expected to be responsible for providing this service, liaising closely with the Council.

The service will be available to the whole population of Lincolnshire.
