CAPS
Carers and Parents Support
At DWO we understand the pressures and isolation that can come from supporting a loved one through their recovery journey or living with someone who is battling addiction. We also know that as a family member/carer you are called on to wear many hats. CAPS exists to you give you a chance to hang those many hats up for a while and rest. So why not connect with us and swap those many hats for a comfortable cap for a while?
Recoverees
Practical Support
We can help with an emergency ration food pack, clothes, and other items as well as helping you to connect with other agencies who can assist you, as determined by you. There is also a supply of coffee, compassion and chat waiting for you so come see us soon. We would love to connect with you.
It may not feel like it right now but someone once said "Hardships can prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny. We are here to walk with you on your journey, without judgement or condemnation, just as ones who have been on that same journey. DWO is a safe space where we offer caring support in practical ways without pressure. We will take the journey with you where you are at. We never forget that while we are here wanting to walk alongside you the journey belongs to you. We hope you will come by and spend some time with us soon. Coffee, chat, support and compassion flows freely
