We are pleased to announce that our monthly Online Family Programme is now free to participate in. We have removed the £20 charge for each session as we’d like to make it accessible for everyone who needs it to access our support.
Led by one of our highly skilled counsellors, our Online Family Programme has been available for a number of years and is open to anyone who has been affected by a loved one’s addiction, whether the person they are close to has stayed at Broadway Lodge or not.
Addiction is an isolating illness and those closest to the individual can feel at a loss at what to do to help and can feel unable to speak to friends about such a sensitive, personal problem. We know that addiction often has a significant impact on the wellbeing of everyone around the individual, so we’ve designed these sessions to offer some beneficial support.
Online Family Programme – what it involves
The Online Family Programme offers a safe space to be able to talk about what has been happening, share worries and fears and get support from both the counsellor and other participants. In addition, there is an educational element where the counsellor will explain numerous relevant concepts around the topic of addiction such as codependency and the enabling cycle. Participants often feed back that they didn’t realise how much they needed the Online Family Programme until they did it and appreciate the identification from joining with others who are also close to someone with addiction and have experienced similar feelings and situations.
Online Family Programme – when they are & how to book
The Online Family Programme is held by one of our counsellors on the third or last Sunday of the month and it is both educational and supportive. The session is delivered from 10am – 4.30pm to a small group (usually no more than 12 participants).
Upcoming Online Family Programme dates are listed on our website in the events section and you can book on by clicking the ‘book now’ button and following the steps on the Ticket Tailor website you will be taken to.
