Community Drug Service For South London

Community Drug Service for South London (CDSSL) initiated in 1985 by a local
mother after her son died from drug related death. It was formally established as a
charity in 1991 as a service providing emotional, practical and social support to
substance misusers and their carers. CDSSL has an established reputation in the
addiction field and the quality of the work delivered has been recognised by various
bodies over the years. Several awards have been won since the project was
established including the Whitbread Community Care Award in 1988, the Certificate
of Merit for contributions towards community service from the Co-operative Union Ltd
in 1991, Community Award from the Mayor of Merton in 1998, and the Trust for
London award for committed services to the community in acknowledgment of
outstanding achievement also in 1998. More recently CDSSL has received visits
from the: Ministry of Crime Reduction, Mayor of London Office and local MP in
Merton, for its achievements in the contribution given to reducing drug use and
related crime locally.
