Daily Dose
Daily Dose is maintained by WIRED. WIRED was developed six years ago by David Clark, a Professor of Psychology at University of Wales, Swansea, as a way of empowering people to tackle substance misuse. It aims to:
Provide the information, support and tools that people require to help them overcome or reduce their substance use problem;
Improve the quality of services in the community provided to people with a substance use problem and their families and carers;
Raise awareness and understanding of substance misuse, the problems it creates and the ways to deal with these problems.
WIRED is a grass roots initiative that merges real world activities with an exceptionally high profile web based communication system, for the purpose of disseminating information, providing support, education and training, conducting research, and amplifying the capacity of already successful programmes to reach their audiences.
WIRED has a small core team, the majority working in their spare time. It has the assistance of a range of professionals, and access to an ongoing programme of support and engagement with users, ex-users, and their families.
