Teen and young people's addiction services in Brymbo take a different approach from adult services — recognising that adolescent brain development makes young people more vulnerable to addiction and more likely to have experimental or exploratory patterns of use. Services work with the young person themselves, their family, their school, and other agencies involved in their life. Referrals can come from GP, school, CAMHS, social care, or self-referral.
For parents concerned about a young person in Brymbo, Frank (0300 123 6600) can advise on how to approach the conversation and what services are available. Young people's services in Brymbo use motivational approaches rather than confrontation, and confidentiality is maintained (with safeguarding exceptions). The goal is to reduce harm and support healthy development, not to label or stigmatise.
