The Nilaari Agency came into existence in the mid nineties as a spontaneous reaction to issues identified amongst local communities and informal groups of substance misusers.
In 1999 the organisation changed its name from the St Paul’s & Easton Drugs Awareness Group to the Nilaari agency to reflect the change of focus to an adult citywide service.
We target the Black & other Minority communities as these groups are under represented in drug treatment services. However, anyone in need can access our services.
The Nilaari agency is a charitable organisation managed by an Executive Board of volunteers that are local people who are elected at an annual general meeting.
