"I know Inclusion will be there to support us and him"

About: Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust / Addiction services

(as a parent/guardian),

My Son has been taking drugs on and off with friends for 3 years. Could see the damage it was causing and the way in which addiction was taking hold. Was at my wits end, the family all supportive also were stumped in what to do. His peer group were the same, he was moody and our lovely son had turned into a shadow of himself. We needed to get him away from here but no where to turn.

We then heard of Inclusion, who were amazingly supportive and informative. They made us feel happier in the fact we were no alone in our fears. Groups were available for families to attend who had drug problems within in them. Also one to one sessions were offered. A friendly phone call to see how we were. All these things helped us survive. Our son had to go away to get away from his environment, and went to stay in another country with family members. He has been drug free for 3 months and is working on a voluntary basis. He is due home soon and I know Inclusion will be there to support us and him to come to terms with his addictions and to face them and fight them.

Thank you.
