Our Aims
We seek to support our members
To Understand
The problems their loved ones face when trying to come to terms with their addiction to drugs / alcohol
To Gain Strength
To be able to keep boundaries and concentrate on their own lives. To stop 'enabling'
To be Kind to Ourselves
By interacting with others who are in a similar situation, members support each other to concentrate on their own mental and physical health
To Accept
They cannot change their loved ones' choices and behaviours: they can only change their own attitude and learn to accept their situation.

- I WILL, however, support you in being free of those things
- I will NOT tolerate you being aggressive, disrespectful, insulting or controlling
- I WILL, however, support you in any attempt to make yourself healthy, well and fulfilling the potential you have to do positive and wonderful things
