Affected Others Support
A study by UK DPC reports that close to 1.5 million adults in the UK are affected by a relative or loved one's addiction.
But this does not include those who called out for support.
Could this be you? Are you in need of support?
If so, this group is for you!
At SUIT we have a passion to help others who have been directly or indirectly affected by addiction, with holistic support offered by our Lived Experience staff and volunteers. With the launch of Affected Others, we aim to bring a new, fresh approach to offering support to family and loved ones who have been significantly impacted by a friend or family members addiction.
Affected Others group is fully inclusive and free to attend. This is a space for individuals to meet others who share similar experiences, to be heard and get support.
If you are interested in attending, please feel free to come along on Tuesday 9th June, between 11am-12pm at Wolverhampton Arts Centre, Dunkley Street, Wolverhampton, WV1 4AN.
#endperiodpoverty!

University of Wolverhampton SUIT Poster Campaign
These fantastic posters were designed by dedicated social science and graphic design students at the University of Wolverhampton, who will be submitting the amazing work as part of their upcoming assessments.
The posters kindly promote SUIT and are designed to raise awareness of addiction and addictive behaviours, to break the cycle of stigma and encourage positive conversations between students, tutors, and researchers who may be experiencing the pressures and isolation that can be related to studying or working in academic settings.
If you are a student or staff member at the University of Wolverhampton, look out for the brilliant poster campaign, to encourage people to seek support & open up conversations about addiction and recovery.
If you are a students, researcher, or member of staff at the University of Wolverhampton who may have questions about addiction and recovery, lived or living experience, or be an affected family member, call us on 01902 328983 for guidance.

“Over 1,200 liver scans have now been completed at a pioneering series of pop up clinics across Wolverhampton designed to bring non invasive health screening directly into the community”
Councillor Obaida Ahmed, the City of Wolverhampton Council's Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Community, said: "These community Fibro-scan clinics are a fantastic example of how we are working with partners to bring healthcare into familiar, welcoming spaces.
"By teaming up with Recovery Near You and the Service User Involvement Team, and working alongside faith leaders, lived experience volunteers, businesses and community organisations, we’ve demonstrated the value of culturally sensitive, accessible, and health focused interventions in breaking down stigma and helping residents to take proactive steps towards better liver health.”

ANNOUNCEMENT!
YOGA WITH CATE in WOLVERHAMPTON
Yoga has been part of my life since my twenties — sometimes front and centre, sometimes in the background — but always there when I’ve needed it. It’s helped me through tough emotional times, supported physical recovery when physio felt like a chore, and continues to guide me toward the kind of life I actually want: grounded, calm, and real. It helps me keep choosing what truly supports me, rather than slipping back into old patterns or chasing fleeting highs.
Cate is a beautiful human and we want to say thank you for her continued support and patronage towards SUIT.
