Are you worried about the substance use or addictive behaviour of a loved one? Does it cause tension in your relationship? It doesn't have to be this way. It's possible to encourage them on their recovery journey whilst taking care of your own wellbeing.

Join me for a free information session to help you:

understand addiction better
see how to have a better relationship with your loved one
discover support options and helpful resources for yourself, as well as your loved one
connect with others who "get it" in a non-judgemental and understanding space

Why am I running these sessions? I lost someone dear to me at the hands of addiction and I believe that if I'd had a better understanding, things would have been very different. I don't want others to have the same regrets as me and I want to help reduce the worryingly high number of drug-related deaths in Scotland. They are all preventable.

I have received Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) through Scottish Families Against Alcohol and Drugs and I am an accredited coach.

How is this workshop free? Thanks to funding from Edinburgh Can B, it has been possible to offer this session for free. Thank you Edinburgh Can B!

Every Saturday, the Community Wellbeing Space offers a free community meal so feel free to come along early and enjoy a bowl of soup with members of the local community. That's what I plan to do :-)

If this date or location doesn't suit you then please get in touch with me and I can let you know about other sessions I organise. Please spread the word to anyone who might find these sessions helpful!

Many thanks,

Alice
