Family Interventions Support - Derbyshire Addictions Advice Service

We understand that whether someone is seeking support or is in recovery from an alcohol or substance use problem, there may still be challenges for those who are close to them. Our Family Interventions Worker, who has lived experience knows how difficult it can be to navigate recovery alongside a loved one. Fears of relapse, treading on eggshells, fear for the future and the stability of the family unit are some of the difficulties to face. Our family interventions support project provides advice and support to help you work through the difficulties and meet others who are experiencing similar concerns.
