"When I lost everything, the one consistent thing in my life was drink. You think it’s your best friend, but it just makes matters worse. I understand the truly amazing benefits of going alcohol-free. What was a fix for the TV series, 'Who Dare's Wins', has had so many unexpected benefits, I've never looked back."
Join us for 31 days alcohol-free.
A total reset for your body and mind.
Alcohol is the backdrop to our lives. We celebrate with it, we mourn with it, and somewhere along the way, we forget to ask: "What is this doing to me?"
One person every hour dies as a result of the effects of alcohol. Alcohol harm – mental health problems, liver disease, seven forms of cancer, economic difficulties, and so much more – can affect any one of us, from any walk of life.
But here’s the thing, Alcohol Change UK is not anti-alcohol; we're pro-change.
It’s about taking a break, living better, feeling better.
The statistics show that when people reduce their alcohol intake (even by just a little), their risk of harm from alcohol decreases.
“What you have is a pretty average group of British people who would not consider themselves heavy drinkers, yet stopping drinking for a month alters liver fat, cholesterol and blood sugar and helps them lose weight.”

"Since accepting that I was using alcohol for the wrong reasons, I've been able to look within and work on myself to understand why I was drinking in the first place. Days with my girls over nights with my demons take priority in my life now.”
Paul Mort
"Living in an area of the world where getting 'on the sesh' is considered normal, Friday and Saturday binge sessions were the standard for me. Ultimately they were part of the reason I ended up suicidal back in 2014. I ended up 5 stone overweight and riffled with anxiety too. Although I did manage to get more of a handle on it in the following years, booze was still the one thing that slowed me down, killed my mood, destroyed my productivity and was still impacting in my life in a negative way - with ZERO benefit. The decision I made to go completely sober on the 23rd December 2021 has been transformative for me, my family and my business. I love sharing the tools and techniques I've used to go alcohol free and still live an exciting, joy filled life full of laughs and amazing experiences."
Scott Thomas
“After years of throwing parties for a living my relationship to alcohol became out of control. I couldn’t ever seem to find that balance and I was always ALL or NOTHING! My behaviour around alcohol would affect my personal relationships, business and so much more. In 2019 I decided to go sober for a year and it completely changed my whole life. Through the power of sobriety I managed to find a new found love for self-development and everything seemed to improve for me across the board. I now want to use my platform and story to help raise awareness around the stigma around “going sober.” I feel like a lot of people feel trapped in a lifestyle and I want to show people that there is another way!”
Don’t wait to commit to this. Spaces will be limited.

The collaboration between Alcohol Change UK and BreakPoint is more than just a one-off...
Founded by Ollie in 2015, BreakPoint's mission is to empower individuals and teams to break through their self-imposed limitations. Fostering resilience and driving performance to unprecedented heights.
Ollie Ollerton explains, "It's not just about fitness, it's about fortitude. The tools BreakPoint uses to help people break free from mental constraints align seamlessly with the goals of Alcohol Change UK. They help people see alcohol for what it really is — a choice, not a necessity. By combining the physical trial of a 10K with the mental challenge of Dry January®, this is an experience that delivers real, long-lasting change."
Alcohol Change UK is a beacon of light for those who find themselves trapped in the web of alcohol dependency.

“At first, I was terrified of a big night out with friends sober. But it gets easier and easier and then just becomes normal. What I’ve realised more than anything is that good times are good, fun times are fun, and bad events are bad with or without alcohol.”
