Voluntary Drug Testing Unit

A dedicated place for offenders to either attend or reside when undertaking part of the VDT programme. Often a VDTU which was a residential wing with a testing room incorporated, would be of a higher standard & have additional facilities which would be a perk to encourage offenders to want to adhere to the VDT testing compact & remain on the wing. Sadly most of these are no longer in operation due to budget cuts, & over crowding issues meaning the wings have had to be turned back into normal residential units
