Community Services

As a professional coming into contact with family members affected by someone else’s drinking you will be well aware of its harmful effects on the individual concerned and those around them, particularly the families.

It is estimated that one person in 13 is dependent on alcohol in Britain - twice as many as are hooked on all other forms of drugs. Between 60-70% of men who assault their partners do so under the influence of alcohol.

Al-Anon Public Information co-operates with Community Services. Al-Anon volunteers are available on request to speak to staff who would like to better understand the help Al-Anon has to offer. This can be arranged by contacting the Al-Anon General Service Office on 020 7403 0888.
