Story

Do you want to burn off those excesses of Christmas and kick start 2016 with a January detox? Join us for a Sober Start, ditching alcohol for a month and raising money for our Antidote LGBT alcohol & drug support. 

Sign up for your Sober Start and get sponsored to go alcohol-free this January, or make a donation to support our campaign.

Research shows that LGBT people drink more, and more often, than society as a whole. Sober Start encourages people to give up for a month but also to think about longer-term sustainable reductions in drinking. 

By sponsoring or donating you will be helping to support Antidote at London Friend, the UK's only LGBT alcohol & drug service which works directly with LGBT people concerned about alcohol or drug issues. Antidote also works with policy makers to improve health and care services for LGBT people.
