## Description

The Care Navigation Service and Prison In reach service are being commissioned using funding from Project Adder\. The scope of the project is to provide a range of interventions that address and reduce the harm caused by the supply and use of heroin and crack cocaine in Hastings, East Sussex\. The government's Shared Outcomes Fund is designed to test innovative approaches to address cross-cutting issues affecting society\. This includes funding totalling £28 million to help join up agencies to break up serious and organised crime gangs whilst tackling addictions due to a focus on drug misuse\. The Home Office will work with the Department for Health and Social Care \(DHSC\) and Public Health England \(PHE\) to pilot an intensive whole system approach to tackling drug misuse in select locations worst affected by drug misuse, alongside national activity to disrupt the supply of drugs\. Hastings has been identified as one of four pilot locations for this funding due to high rates of drug deaths and high rates of heroin and crack cocaine use\.
