Following confirmation on 21 March 2025 from the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities of confirmed allocations for 2025/26 for the Drug and Alcohol Treatment and Recovery Improvement Grant (DATRIG) and the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) Grant, the contract value will be uplifted to incorporate the following additional funding from April 2025 to March 2026: a. PS60,000 from the In-Patient Detoxification (IPD) element of the DATRIG . b. PS216,074 from the IPS Grant. c. PS276,716 from the Rough Sleepers Drug and Alcohol Treatment component of the DATRIG . 3. Posts within the Women's Recovery Academy Durham have been incorporated within the DATRIG plan for 2025/26 and will therefore be funded via the Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery Services contract that Durham County Council has in place with Waythrough.
