For Relatives & Friends Concerned about the use of Drugs, Alcohol or Related Behavioural Problems
DOES SOMEONE YOU CARE ABOUT USE DRUGS OR ALCOHOL?
What do you do if you discover, or even just suspect, that someone you love is taking drugs? Do you confront them? Do you seek advice? If so, who from? Police? School? A priest? Your doctor? The neighbours?
Drug or alcohol abuse is a very frightening and isolating problem and it helps to talk to people who know what it feels like to be in this situation. There is help available and there is hope.
Families Anonymous (FA) is a fellowship of self-help groups for families and friends of drug and alcohol abusers. Based on the famous ‘Twelve Steps’ of Alcoholics Anonymous, about 50 groups meet weekly all over the country.
A local group meets every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month
7.30-9.30pm at Middletown Community Centre Middletown, Welshpool SY21 8EJ
For more info contact: Trinity 07977 708545
Meetings are entirely anonymous, only first names are ever used, and no dues or fees are payable.
For details of this or other meetings call Family Anonymous on 0845 1200 660 (lo-call) staffed from 1-4 weekdays. If outside these hours an ansaphone message will refer you to a helpline number that is staffed by volunteers every evening and weekend.
