Stronger Together

💙 🧡 Tonight! 💙 🧡

It’s been one of those busy weeks, and our usual Tuesday reminder slipped by us!

But we’re still here tonight and looking forward to catching up with everyone. 🙏

Whether you’ve had a difficult week, have something on your mind, or just fancy a cuppa and a chat with people who understand, you’re always welcome.

There’s never any pressure to share. Sometimes just being around others who understand what you’re going through can make a difference.❤️

As always, the kettle will be on and there’ll be a warm welcome waiting, whether you’re joining us for the first time or have been along before. ☕️

We’ve finally dried off after Sunday! 😂🌧️💙🧡

A huge thank you again to everyone who braved the weather and stopped by to see us - it was lovely getting to chat with so many of you.

We’re back in the warm tonight for our usual Stronger Together group. ☕

If you fancy coming along, whether it’s for a chat, a cuppa or just to listen, you’ll be made very welcome. 🫶

See you tonight 💙🧡

What a day! 💙🧡

A huge thank you to everyone who braved the weather and stopped by the Stronger Together stall today! 🌧️💨 It definitely wasn’t on our side, but we still had a great day meeting so many lovely people.

It was great to have the opportunity to share what Stronger Together is all about and, most importantly, let families and loved ones affected by someone else’s alcohol or substance use know that they are not alone.

We’re asking for views on a range of options to help meet the different Additional Support Needs (ASN) of children and young people across Angus. The options have been developed using feedback from the pre-consultation we held in September 2025.

The options include:
- increasing the number of resourced primary schools in Angus
- increasing the number of School and Pupil Support Assistants (SPSAs)
- increasing support from Principal Teachers (Inclusion) in primary schools
- increasing the number of Additional Support Needs teachers across Angus
- exploring how space in existing school buildings could be used to support a broader range of needs
- considering the use of other vacant buildings across Angus.

We've also still got drop-in sessions coming up at:
- 20 October, Montrose Academy - 6-7pm
- 22 October, Abbeyview Campus, Arbroath – 6.30-7.30pm
- 26 October, Carnoustie High School - 2-3pm
- 27 October, Timmergreens Primary School, Arbroath - 2.30-3.30pm
- 28 October, Webster's High School, Kirriemuir - 6-7pm

Find out more about the options and how to take part on our Engage Angus website - https://orlo.uk/YFe35

The engagement runs until Friday 30 October 2026.
