fass was originally established as The Glasgow Association of Family
Support Groups in 1984. Since then we have helped countless families and individuals to cope with the affects of addiction.
In June 2008 the Glasgow Association of Family Support Groups became
fass (family addiction support service).
The change of name reflects the changing nature of addiction services
which now encompasses both drug and alcohol misuse.
We fully intend to continue and improve the services that began
nearly 25 years ago. And, also,continue to provide the community with a unique and special service.
Jim Harrigan MBE
In 1997 Jim Harrigan was awarded the MBE for his work with addicts and families in the
community.
Jim has been involved with the association since the beginning and he believes that this award belongs to the
Association far more than it does him.
This valuable service to the community was ,again, officially recognised in
2003 when the Association was awarded the Queen's Golden Jubilee Award For Voluntary Service By Groups In The Community.
