BEYOND - Bereaved Young Adults Through Alcohol And Drugs

Gives young adults who have lost a family member through addiction the opportunity to…

… look BEYOND their loved one’s addiction, to remember the person, their memories,
and the light they brought into everyone’s lives…

… look BEYOND their own journey, through meeting others in a similar situation,
sharing their stories and experiences with each other, and accessing their emotions in a safe and supportive environment…

… look BEYOND perceptions to break down the stigma for young people bereaved by addiction; reduce isolation; and provide a place where young people can express themselves without fear of judgement.

Our current programme offers creative workshops and ‘Unload’ sessions.

All of our sessions aim to create an environment, which enables honest disclosure and respectful discussions to occur.

We provide a place where participants can express themselves without fear of judgment and a place where they can remember the person and not the addiction - something that we really believe is truly beneficial.

A lot of focus can be given to talking about; the reasons why a loved one has died; the issue that contributed to the bereavement; and the series of events surrounding the bereavement; which often leaves little space for remembering the person that is no longer with them, the childhood memories they had together and the qualities of their loved one who made them unique.
