My family are just one in 600,000 families in the UK who have been deeply affected by the horrors that alcohol dependency can cause and I’d love to be able to support an organisation that gives those with a poor relationship with alcohol the opportunity to have somewhere to turn when they are ready.

I’m running 10k (lord help me) on the 1st February for someone very close to me, who despite the fact they couldn’t recognise it, and through no fault of their own or others, was dependent on alcohol for a large proportion of their life, until they peacefully passed away to a much happier place in 2020.

Like many others, they turned to misuse of alcohol as a way of coping with life’s stressors.

It’s important that positive relationships with alcohol are encouraged, without shaming or creating a taboo, and that’s what Alcohol Change works to do.

Any donation, big or small will be a huge help ❤️
