The City of London Substance Misuse Partnership implements the
Government's National Drug
Strategy (422k) within the Square Mile. In order to
effectively achieve this, the SMP has developed a Commissioning
Strategy which outlines the priorities and strategic
direction for the next 3-5 years.
The overarching priority within the strategy is to:
- Make the most of the synergies with the public health agenda,
and to exploit the potential for greater collaboration with the
Corporation's Health and Wellbeing function.
There are also a number of short-term priorities stated within
the strategy, which are to:
- Develop a needs assessment process to inform design of future
service provision.
- Sustain and develop a good quality substance misuse service for
the resident population.
- Develop a wider service approach to both the daytime and
night-time populations.
- Seek to influence the commissioning decisions of the corporate
sector in the City.
