Addaction

"Addaction was formed in 1967 when Mollie Craven wrote an article in the Guardian newspaper appealing to the families of addicts to start a support group. Mollie had first-hand experience of dealing with addiction in the family. Her son was already a registered heroin addict by the age of 18. Feeling powerless to help, Mollie wrote, "we parents of addicts are a neglected and ignored group.”"
