Outreach

People using drugs or drinking alcohol may not be aware of our services or not comfortable visiting our centre. Through our outreach service, our staff can provide support to people on the street, in the community or a safe, familiar location.
Our staff also offer what is termed an in-reach service, where we visit local services and centres to familiarise their clients with the range of services provided by Ballyfermot Advance Project.
Target Group
Problematic Alcohol and Drug Users.
People who are unaware of the services offered by BAP and do not engage with other services locally.
When is the service available?
Our street outreach runs Monday to Friday during our regular opening hours.

Out-of-Hours Outreach Service
As an extension to our outreach service, Ballyfermot Advance Project started an Out-of-Hours service to target clients who experience difficulty in attending during normal working hours.
Target Group
People who are actively drinking or using drugs and are looking for support.
Individuals who are not able to attend our Drop-In or Key Working and Case Management Service during our regular opening hours.

Currently, this service operates three weekday evenings per week and one day at the weekend.

Out of Hours Service operates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday evening from 5pm -8pm and on Saturday afternoons. It covers the areas of Ballyfermot Upper, Ballyfermot Lower, Cherry Orchard, Chapelizod and Palmerston.
