Health has agreed a variation to the Community Drug and Alcohol Prevention,
Treatment and Recovery Service contract (YORE-9F7N76), known as Forward

p.a. from £8,329,730 to £ 7,659,730 with effect from 1 April 2017 .

amount of savings realised from this service to 10% which is in line with the
overall reduction to public health funding in Leeds.
