Welcome to the Stronger Together Arbroath page 💙🧡

This group has been created to support families and loved ones affected by someone else’s alcohol and substance use. We know how isolating it can feel, and we want people to have a safe, understanding space where no one feels alone.

Stronger Together is peer-led and shaped by lived experience. Our aim is to offer support, connection, and hope to anyone who needs it.

We meet every Thursday (starting the 16th April) at the Families Centre, Arbroath (address on poster), 6.30–8pm.
You don’t need to book - just come along, or message the page if you’d like to know more.

**This group is for anyone in the Angus area…..as we know that addiction has no borders**.

Please share this page so it reaches anyone who might need it.

Together, we are stronger. 🙏

N.B Special thanks to everyone who has supported us thus far to get this group up and running.
