About

CODA has existed as an independent charity since 1992. THe agency really began with 2 part time workers who found premises in the centre of Skipton and began the process of developing a drug and alcohol service responsive to the needs of the people of the Craven Dales.

Today the majority of the staff team are still local people so they have a strong understanding of the needs of the residents of the Craven Dales. The agency offers services that have proved themselves useful to many of the clients that pass through CODA’s doors and our primary aim is to ensure these services continue to develop abd improve in order to offer the best service possible to our local comunity.
