Alcoholics Anonymous East Lancashire (Carl's Story) & BBC Radio Lancashire Podcast November 2020

Send us a text

During Alcohol Awareness Week in November 2020, 5 of our members had a chat with BBC Radio Lancashire presenter Garry Scott about their issues with alcoholism (alcohol addiction), described how they got sober and recovered from the illness.
The fifth and final story from this series of radio broadcasts is from a member called Carl who started drinking at the age of 15 at a Christmas party. He recognised early in his drinking career that when he took a drink he wanted more yet his problem continued for many years.
Thankfully you will hear how he managed to get sober and find a solution to his alcoholism with AA. He said to live without alcohol is amazing and now carries the message of AA with enthusiasm, both inside and outside of the fellowship including in Prisons and does service as a Probation Liaison Officer too.
