“I am thrilled to be an ambassador for Alcohol Change UK. Addiction has been a central theme throughout my life as it is for so many in the UK and therefore I’m so proud to be aligned with a charity that works to move the conversation towards something that is centred around choice, empowerment and removing the shame that so many feel around alcohol harm.”
