Adferiad is a member-led charity, supporting people with their mental health, substance use issues, their carers and many other complex needs.
We prioritise the person and not the circumstances, putting the individual at the heart of everything we do. Instead of adopting a one-size-fits-all approach, we strive to understand each person's unique needs and preferences.
