WHAT IS GROUP WORK?
A variety of groups are offered to clients in Dumbarton and Clydebank, the aim is to
enable them to mix with other service users in a safe environment thereby boosting
self confidence and social interaction. The groups also provide a range of diversionary
activities from guitar classes to beauty treatments.

We believe alcohol and personal issues are best dealt with in counselling therefore the
groups focus on more general issues and activities.

A range of outings which are tailored to meet the needs of specific groups are held on
