This a new initiative that My Support Day is developing and collaborating with The Beacons. The project called “Family Days” will be based within the South Lanarkshire Beacons. The project’s focal point will be on a whole family approach threading education throughout, adapting to individual/family needs. Identifying a gap in services working with families affected by substance use; particularly with children/young people that have been affected by someone else’s substance use has highlighted the importance to create work with partners in education, focusing on early intervention and prevention around children and families.

The Family Days sessions will be a safe, supportive, and productive family meetup time, out of school hours to assist children / young people in completing their homework and or to provide extra support where required. Family Days will provide vital support for children who do not otherwise have the help that they need. My Support Day will focus on vital family support via 1:1 support, group setting and focus on education and information sessions in a trauma informed, psychological and nurturing environment addressing trauma and the impact for those affected by someone else’s substance use.
