Families of drug addict phone line?

My father is having a family member coming to stay who is in the depths of a crisis with drug dependency- repeat hospital admissions etc.

Long complex reasons why no adults are able to be sensible, including my Dad who should refuse this visit from these family members, but I can only do so much!

is there a good helpline I can recommend my Dad can call during a crisis? He will benefit from independent advice from people he will listen to about how to help and more importantly - how to stay detached.

family member has money for private professional treatment, but currently no desire to make a concrete change so I’m just looking to support my dad at the minute.
