Story
I'm proud to be fundraising for Alcohol Change UK by taking on the London Landmarks half marathon in April 2024. This charity does brilliant work to reduce harm caused by alcohol and addiction for those struggling themselves, and for those impacted by someone else's relationship with alcohol.
This charity and the work they do means a lot to me as I have supported someone very close to me through addiction, and understand the devastating impact alcohol harm can have. I would be grateful for any donations towards reaching my goal of running my first half marathon in support of this amazing charity. Thank you!

About Alcohol Change UK
In the UK one person every hour dies as a result of alcohol. Alcohol harm mental health problems, liver disease, one of seven forms of cancer, economic difficulties, and so much more can affect any one of us, from any walk of life.
The harm doesn't end with the individual; each of us who drinks too much is part of a family and a community who feel the effects too, whether through frequent use of emergency services, drink driving, violence or neglect.
We are Alcohol Change UK. We work for a society that is free from the harm caused by alcohol.
We are not anti-alcohol; we are for alcohol change. We are for 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.
