One-to-One Support

We can offer you one-to-one support if you would like to speak to someone, confidentially, about a loved one you are concerned about.

The team will offer you time and space to explore the issues affecting you, let you express your thoughts and feelings, and help you to come up with ideas and solutions to move forward. Common topics include improving communication, setting boundaries with your loved one, and looking after yourself.

Each support session lasts around one hour and the frequency can be arranged to suit your needs. They travel across Forth Valley and frequently use rooms in libraries, community centres and treatment services to meet with family members.

Group Support

Currently, in Forth Valley, we are facilitating different zoom groups on rotation weekly:

• What’s Your Story– Suitable for newcomers and existing family members to share their family’s personal experiences of alcohol and drugs
• Connect, Learn & Share– Suitable anyone who is interested in discussing alcohol and drugs in a wider context – bringing in current events, speakers and videos

A Place to Share– A chance to share day to day worries
