During the visit Dr Billings toured the facilities at New Beginnings, a specialist detox and rehabilitation unit in Balby and also Rosslyn House in Doncaster town centre and spoke to staff, volunteers and clients.
Stuart Green, Aspire Service Manager, said: “We are very pleased that Dr Billings took the opportunity to come and see the service we provide to help people in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. The work that we do here in Doncaster plays an important role in helping to reduce drug and alcohol related crime.”
