Welcome to our website

NERAF is an independent charity established to help transform peoples lives by helping them to full recovery from substance misuse. We do this by providing a very personalised service, recognising that everybody is unique with individual needs. We will make you feel welcome, listen to your story and then work with you to help you achieve what matters to you. We take pride in working "with" you rather than doing what we do "to" you.

We provide support in group sessions or via our unique 1-2-1 coaching and mentoring service where you will work with your own recovery coach for as long as you need to. In addition we provide the same high level of service to families of those affected by substance misuse, again recognising that each family is different rather than giving you an off the shelf package. After all, Families matter too, right?

NERAF was set up and is run by people that have previously, been affected by addiction to alcohol.We highlight the dangers & health risks of misusing alcohol and, at the same time tell you that if you treat alcohol with respect & drink safely then none of the health risks should affect you. Give alcohol the same respect you would give to prescription or other over the counter drugs.
