Story
Over 2 years ago my dad, the hardest working man i knew, lost his battle to alcohol addiction.
It’s taught me a lot over the last two years and I’m running this half marathon on behalf of AlcoholChange UK to spread awareness about how alcohol can affect lives, families and relationships and that someone isn’t weak for struggling with addiction, they are ill.
About Alcohol Change UK
Every day in the UK twenty people die because of alcohol. It can affect anyone, from any walk of life but alcohol harm is not inevitable. With your support, change can happen faster.
We want to build a future in which people drink as a conscious choice, not a default; where the issues which lead to alcohol problems like poverty, mental health issues, homelessness are addressed; where those of us who drink too much, and our loved ones, have access to high-quality support whenever we need it, without shame or stigma.
