Ashburton Support Group Turns 18!

21 Oct 2026 6.30pm - 9.00pm

Join us as we celebrate the Ashburton Support Group’s 18th anniversary and its long-standing contribution to supporting families, friends​ and individuals affected by addiction, gambling harm​ and mental health challenges.

The highlight of the evening will be a live presentation by Three Sides of the Coin, showcasing their latest project, AGD and Me: Putting the G into AOD. This powerful lived-experience performance explores the strong links between gambling harm, alcohol and other drug use​ and mental health challenges.

Following the performance, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A session and enjoy a catered supper while connecting with others in a supportive and welcoming environment.

This event is open to all members of the community, and carers are especially welcome. Places are limited so early registration is recommended.
