Substance misuse not only affects the person using substances but also those who care about them.

Stockport Drug and Alcohol Services understand this and offer help to family, friends and concerned others.

There is information and advice available to help understand the health risks of drugs and alcohol and how loved ones can be supported.

The service can also help family, friends and concerned others to manage the stress, anxiety and problems that someone else’s substance misuse is causing them.
