Support

We offer a series of remote one-to-one support sessions to adults affected by the drug or alcohol use of a loved one who live in the East Sussex local authority area, as well as to those whose loved ones using substances reside there.

These sessions allow you to explore how your loved one’s drug or alcohol use is affecting you and to get support in making changes, if you wish. Our experienced worker listens to you and can work through a range of topics which others affected by someone’s substance use have found helpful. Our worker will (metaphorically!) walk alongside you as you plan a way forward and may suggest further support or advice if appropriate.
These sessions are offered via Zoom or by phone. 

You will receive an initial call followed by at least six sessions of personalised one-to-one support, delivered by our experienced team. Depending on individual needs, you may also be offered peer support group sessions or counselling sessions.

You must be over the age of 18 to use this service.

You may also be affected financially.
