    Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol  and Drugs

    Description

    Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol and Drugs was set up in 2003 by families themselves who came together to support teach other.  They created a united voice to raise awareness of the challenges they faced as family members.

    Scottish Families supports anyone who is concerned about someone else’s alcohol or drug use.  We use a broad definition of ‘family’, including family members, carers, friends, neighbours, work colleagues, and the list goes on.
