02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
In response to the devastating impact that drug and alcohol related deaths have in our communities, Harbour Ayrshire was established to deliver (in partnership) a range of solution focused options, while creating opportunities for some of the most vulnerable people in our society, allowing them to live a life free from the stigma and suffering of addiction. We deliver a wide range of services led by 8 employees and 60 Volunteers, including 15 different weekly support groups as an example. Full details of all services in our Trustee Annual Report on our website.
