Al-Anon Family Groups are for the families & friends of alcoholics who share their experience, strength, & hope in order to solve their common problems.
Alateen is for teenage relatives and friends of alcoholics. Alateen is part of Al-Anon. We believe alcoholism is a family disease that affects everyone in the family. Alateen meetings are for 12-17 year olds. They meet to share their experiences of having, or having had, a problem drinker in their lives. They help and support each other.

Have a problem with alcohol? There is a solution. A.A. has a simple program that works. It's based on one alcoholic helping another.

DrinkawareWhen someone is ready to start drinking less, Drinkaware is ready to support them. We give the full picture of what drinking does to their mind and body.
We offer information and advice to help people decide which practical changes are right for them and give tips and advice to form new habits and make those changes stick. And because we want people to be protected from alcohol harm, we take what we’ve learned about helping people cut back and use the evidence to promote a world where it’s easier to drink less.

The mission of DrugWise follows very much in the tradition of DrugScope – and for those of you with long memories, its predecessor – the Institute for the Study of Drug Dependence – that is to provide drug information which is topical, evidence-based and non-judgemental – and to promote this through media work, public speaking and lecturing.
