The Sheffield Treatment and Recovery Team, also know as START, provides support and treatment to people living in the city who are struggling with addiction to alcohol, opiates and non-opiates.
We also support people who are involved with the police, probation services, or who are leaving prison, to support them to reduce their drug related offending alongside providing specialist treatment.
Our door is always open if you'd prefer to pop in to our clinic on Fitzwilliam Street and speak to us in person.
Our team are here to help and can explain more about the support we can offer you.

We have two clinics in Sheffield, one based at the Fitzwilliam Centre and the other on Sidney Street.
Our team is made up of around 125 staff including nurses, recovery workers, doctors, therapists, support workers and social workers. We treat around 3,500 people a year.
The START service is split up into four main areas:
We offer free, confidential support to anyone aged 18 or over who lives in Sheffield, and people can refer themselves or a loved one to the service.

This service is commissioned by the Drug and Alcohol Co-ordination Team at Sheffield City Council.
If you are injecting drugs, we can provide sterile injecting equipment, sharps bins and safer injecting advice to help reduce the risks to you and others.
You don’t need an appointment to use the needle exchange, and you don’t need to be in treatment.
To find out more you can give us a call or drop-in to our clinics at Sidney Street or at the Fitzwilliam Centre.
Recovery groups and activities offer supportive settings to help control your drug or alcohol use. Groups are peer led reflective sessions and activities focus on spending time positively through exercise, music, sport and art.
