FINDING SUPPORT

Talk to Someone You Trust

You don’t need to have the right words. Starting a conversation with someone you trust can make things feel more manageable.

  • A friend

  • A family member

  • A teacher or mentor

Reach Out to Support Services

There are services designed to listen without judgement and help you understand what to do next.

  • Gwent n Gage - Substance use support for young people

  • FRANK - Confidential advice on drugs

  • The Mix - Free support for under 25s

Supporting Someone Else

If you’re worried about someone, you don’t have to handle it alone.

  • Start with a calm, open conversation

  • Avoid judgement or assumptions

  • Encourage them to seek support early

Support doesn’t have to start at crisis point. It can start here.
