ANA offers a weekly group which is available to family and carers. The impact of living with a loved one who is addicted to alcohol or drugs can be devastating and frightening for family and partners.

At ANA we help family members and partners gain an understanding and awareness of addiction. We encourage group members to identify how they have been affected by someone else’s behaviour and explore new responses and changes that could be made.

Many family members and partners have denied their own emotional and physical needs as they have become caught up with the needs of their loved one. As a result they sometimes feel betrayed, undervalued and life can be very difficult.

This service aims to support family and carers in overcoming difficulties and leading healthy, rewarding and productive lives with all family members and friends.

This is an open meeting and all are welcome.
