About this event

🍷 Understanding Alcohol Addiction

Hosted by DAAS – Derbyshire Addiction Advice Service 📍 Chesterfield Fire Service Community Room 🕡 Monday 13th October | 6:30pm – 8:00pm 👩‍🦰 For women aged 18+

DAAS (Derbyshire Addiction Advice Service) is part of the Derbyshire Recovery Partnership, offering support to anyone aged 18 and over living in Derbyshire (excluding Derby City) who is affected by substance misuse—whether their own or someone else’s.

Join us for the first of two empowering sessions led by Carita from DAAS. This introductory workshop will raise awareness around alcohol addiction and highlight the support services available. Through interactive props and engaging discussion, Carita will explore the physical and behavioural effects of excessive alcohol consumption, helping attendees better understand the risks and realities.

💡 Knowledge is power. Recognising the difference between enjoyment and dependency is vital. As someone who has personally experienced the impact of addiction—albeit through shopping—I understand how quickly it can affect your mental health and financial wellbeing. Funded by the Derbyshire Police and Crime Commissioner's 'Stronger and Safer Communities' project - This FREE session is a chance to reflect, learn, and grow.

✨ Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and connect with others in a supportive space. Refrehments included.

Please reserve your place in advance.
