One Step at a Time

Aiséirí is launching an awareness and fundraising campaign for whole family recovery.

Addiction affects so many people and communities - not only the individual who is struggling with alcohol, drug and/ or gambling, but their loved ones, colleagues, employers and communities too. We always say in Aiséirí "there isn't a family in Ireland who isn't affected by addiction in some way'. 

Many of us know the life shattering consequences of addiction - but there is hope and families have their own recovery journey.  

Aiséirí provides a range of supports to families including Family Days, a community based Recovery Support Programme and a dedicated family therapist and we need to continue to expand these supports - this is where we ask you to join us in Our One Step At A Time Campaign.

This is involves registering for a walking campaign for the month of March see below for more details:

     How do I take part & support the campaign? There are lots of ways you can take part. 

1. Register for the campaign here on idonate. 

Participate in the challenge and commit to walking 40 kilometres throughout the month of March at your own pace.

To participate in the walking challenge, there is a registration fee of €20, which goes directly to Aiséirí. 

Additionally, you can choose to activate your own iDonate fundraising page to collect sponsorships and raise more funds - this is a great way to really raise funds and awareness. 

Share updates of your progress and photos of your walks on social media using the hashtag #OneStepAtATime. This helps raise awareness and encourages others to join in.

You can also encourage friends, family, or co-workers to participate with you by setting up a team page here on idonate.

      2. Do you want to donate but not take part in the walking challenge?

Just click on the donate button here on idonate where you can make a donation.

     3. Be an advocate & spread the word

If you are not in a position to participate in the challenge or donate, you can still help by spreading the word about Aiséirí's campaign and the importance of whole family recovery. Share information about the campaign on your social media platforms, in your workplace, or within your community. Encourage others to get involved and support this cause.

Thank you so much for your support. Absolutely every donation makes a difference.
