Better Lives Family Service
Providing emotional, practical, and therapeutic support to adults and children being affected by a parent, a spouse, a partner, another family member, carer, or friends use of alcohol or drugs.
Our Service
If you or your children are affected by someone else’s drug or alcohol use, we can support you.
We’re here to help
We know that no one sets out to have a problem with drugs or alcohol but that sometimes things can escalate out of control. When this happens, it can have a long-lasting impact on family life and relationships for everyone in the family, especially for children.
We offer non-judgemental support from committed staff and treat each family and individual as unique, with their own strengths and needs.
We can support you to:
- Strengthen your relationships
- Improve family life
- Reduce the risk from parental drug or alcohol use
- Make children and young people more resilient
This is a partnership between North London Mental Health Partnership and Humankind.
