Branches - Support Group

Branches supports anyone who has been affected by someone else’s drug or alcohol use. This includes parents, partners, siblings, grandparents and friends.

Coping alone is not easy, it can be stressful, hurtful, tiring and can leave us emotionally drained. No one prepares us for the situations we are dealing with and often there is no one to talk to about what actions we need to take.

As a peer led support group we understand what you are going through and will listen and support you without judgement. We don’t claim to have all the answers and don’t give timescales on resolving your problems but we will offer you a listening ear, ongoing support and friendship.

Group meetings and 1:1 support is available. Monday 10am - 12pm and Thursday 10am - 1pm

We currently at Safe haven, 48 Albert Road, Middlesbrough, TS1 1QD

Telephone support is also available at limited times. Mondays to Thursdays from 10am to 4pm ONLY
