About us

SIFA Fireside is the result of the merger of two charities; Supporting Independance From Alcohol and the Fireside Charity. We are based in the Digbeth/ Highgate area of Birmingham and we have around 50 staff and a similar number of volunteers.

SIFA Fireside works with those who are homeless, affected by alcohol or otherwise socially excluded to improve their physical, social and mental wellbeing.

We empower people to meet their short and long term goals. We do this through practical support, including daily drop-ins, a resettlement service, a specialist alcohol support service, well being and activity groups and an employment and training programme.

Our specialist alcohol service includes the option to have Acupuncture and Electric Stimulation Therapy (EST) sessions, a dedicated mental health worker, Hospital liaison and an Outreach project.

The services we provide are free and confidential. For more information please see the Resources section.
