DrugFAM Support

DrugFam Leaflet

DrugFAM offers a range of support services to families, friends and carers who are struggling to cope with the nightmare of a loved one’s addiction to drugs or alcohol and to those who have been bereaved by addiction or related causes. 

Through our range of services we give families the strength to break free from the cycle of addiction and rebuild their lives.  We are dedicated to what we do because we know it makes a difference.

Our Active Addiction service understands the you may be overwhelmed by feelings of helplessness, guilt and shame.

Often these feelings are made worse by the stigma surrounding addiction and a feeling that you can’t speak to your friends, colleagues or other family members about the situation.

Our aim is to help you find ways of coping better with the situation, so that you can start to regain control of your life and start to focus on your own well-being.

Our bereavement services provide opportunities for you to share your individual experiences of loss with our dedicated team.
