FREE INFORMATION, ADVICE & REFERRAL SERVICE
We can also help you with referrals to services and support in the area. All of the OPAL Advisers work in East Dunbartonshire, they know the local area and they know what is available in the community where to find it.
We may not be able to answer every question immediately, but if we cannot we will go and find the answer, and get back in contact with you – even if it is to tell you that what you are looking for does not exist.
From accessing care and support services, through to finding a plumber or a mobile hairdresser, OPAL can help you with more or less any enquiry.

The Community Rehabilitation Team (CRT) provides a home-based, multi-disciplinary service for older people and adults with a disability. It gives advice about managing disabilities on a long term basis, and what service users can do to try to avoid unnecessary admission to hospital/long-term care.
The team works closely with other agencies, health and social care departments and organisations to ensure that patient care is co-ordinated.
Anyone who is eligible will be assessed by the team to determine the correct help and support.

Most referrals to other specialists will require you seeing or speaking with a GP, however there are a number of services locally, listed below that you are able to make self-referrals to.
We can support individuals from age 18 upwards who live within the boundaries of East Dunbartonshire. Our primary focus of support is with people experiencing functional mental health problems e.g. anxiety, depression, psychosis. Our remit does not allow us to work with people with current drug or alcohol issues, brain injury or a learning disability. Our support is mainly one to one and recovery-focused for a maximum of 6 months. We do not operate a counselling service.
EDAMH operates an open referral system and you do not need a clinical diagnosis to be referred to our services. You can request a referral form by telephoning us on 0141 955 3040 or by emailing referrals@edamh.org.uk or click on the link below.
The completed referral form should be returned to our office by post or email. We are always happy to discuss potential referrals over the phone.
