FAMILY SUPPORT
When someone suffers in addiction, their family and friends suffer too. The Family Support service is a group for those who wish to learn more about addiction so they can support someone close to them.
Do you have a family member or close friend with an addiction or alcohol problem?
Do you sometimes wonder why the person you love is causing you so much pain?
Do you sometimes ask yourself where your family member or friend went and why they are not the same person anymore?
We can help. We are holding support groups tailored just for you.
The Family Support service is peer led by people with personal experience of caring for someone through active addiction, relapse and recovery.
We understand that recovery is a life long process, that trauma is felt across families and that professional and compassionate support is needed for the whole family.
Our addiction specialist can teach you the science of addiction and our family members can be there with a listening ear to support over the phone or over a coffee.
One-to-one support will be provided and you can access group therapy sessions or you can talk to someone with lived experience of addiction who can explain what addiction is to them.
Our family support groups are free to anyone who attends.
If you would like more information about Family Support, including details of the next group meeting, please contact us.
