As many take a break from booze for Sober October, the writer Hannah Betts marks ten years since she gave up alcohol. It’s given her a moment to reflect on her father’s death from his own alcohol addiction and to consider why Britain apparently has such a destructive love of booze.
If you or someone you know is affected by alcohol addiction support and advice can be found through the NHS and Drinkaware.
