About the campaign
We’re tackling stigma around addiction through open conversations in the community and the workplace, as well as campaigning nationally for more a compassionate and understanding Wales.
Only Human provides a platform for people with lived experience of addiction to tell their stories. As our Only Human Champions, these individuals help us to deliver anti-stigma talks in workplaces and community settings, spreading awareness and understanding of addiction-related stigma.
We want to empower individuals to have healthy conversations around addiction, focusing on the importance of seeking support and the power of recovery. With better education and understanding, we can create a culture where stigma is challenged, and help is always within reach.
Together, we’re changing the conversation around addiction in Wales.
