Al-Anon Family Groups UK and Eire is for anyone whose life is or has been affected by someone else\u2019s drinking. Al-Anon members provide one another with mutual support, by sharing their experiences with each other at an Al-Anon meeting. Whatever your relationship with the drinker, even if they have stopped drinking, left the family or died, you are welcome to attend Al-Anon. Your anonymity is protected by using first names only. You will not be asked to reveal your surname or any other details about your identity or that of the drinker. Anything discussed within an Al-Anon meeting is treated as confidential, including your presence at the meeting. There are approximately 700 groups (in-person and online) throughout the UK and Eire. There are no dues for membership. Al-Anon is self-supporting through its own voluntary contributions.<\/p>\n
