Families Out Loud (FOL) is a Wiltshire charity working with families challenged by someone else’s drug and alcohol dependency, supporting them to bravely build a better life. We want to reach every family impacted by drug and alcohol use so they can speak out, free from stigma, and receive the support, care and help they need. Our services include one-to-one, group, family and bereavement support, as well as a specialist teen support service.
FOL was founded 5 years ago by the current board of trustees, all of whom have lived-experience of family addiction. If you're an experienced marketing coordinator who would like to be part of a friendly and supportive team that's passionate about helping people, apply today!
