2025 Campaign ‘You are not alone!’ Case Studies

Al-Anon Family Groups UK & Eire launches ‘You Are Not Alone!’ Campaign to highlight the powerlessness and isolation of many families living with alcoholism.

    ‘You are not alone!’     

Al-Anon Family Groups UK & Eire is pleased to announce its new national campaign, You Are Not Alone!, launched in January 2025 alongside Dry January. In a 2024 survey, 92% of individuals admitted to feeling isolated whilst living with a problem drinker prior to attending Al-Anon. Out of those people, 98% felt that Al-Anon gave them a community of people to talk to. The campaign aims to raise awareness and provide vital support to individuals who are affected by someone else’s drinking, offering a beacon of hope and a reminder that help is available.

The You Are Not Alone! campaign is designed to reach those who may feel isolated or powerless due to the impact of someone else’s drinking. The core message is that you do not have to face this alone. Al-Anon Family Groups offers understanding, support, and shared experience for family members and friends who are affected by someone else’s drinking.

The following case studies depict the effect of alcoholism and how Al-Anon has helped those family members.
