Support for the Armed Forces Community

WithYou’s drug and alcohol services offer free and confidential support to people who want to cut down or stop their drug or alcohol use. 

We offer support with any substance a person considers to be a problem, whether that's alcohol or drugs, such as cannabis, cocaine, ketamine or steroids, as well as opiates such as heroin and benzodiazepines.

As part of our treatment programmes, we offer one to one support for anyone facing challenges with drugs and alcohol.

This includes:

• advice and information around your drug and alcohol use and details about what further support is available to you
• treatment and support to help you cut down, or stop, your drug or alcohol use

Change is easier if you have other people to support you. Groups and meetings are a great way to make positive steps in recovery.

We give you access to groups and activities which are attended exclusively by members of the armed forces community. And the opportunity to connect with wider veteran and military networks and social groups too. 

If you're a family member impacted by a loved one’s alcohol or drug use, we can also support you. 

You’ll receive support from one of our Armed Forces Leads, with access to peer support groups and activities which are tailored to people in military families. 

If you think you might be entitled to support but are not sure, please get in touch with us and we can discuss what options are available to you. 

Contact us: armed.forces@wearewithyou.org.uk

Through our services you can access support with a range of other issues, such as mental health, physical health, housing and more.

We'll give you information about wider services and benefits available to veterans and military personnel, and help you find the help you need.
