Where to get help

❚ Your local GP will have a range of options for you, possibly including a number of funded or subsidised counselling sessions, which I highly recommend.

❚ Alcoholchange.org.uk: For information about Dry January and a link to the app.

❚ AA.org.nz: For meetings, resources and support near you.

❚ Alcohol.org.nz: for advice, support and resources from the NZ Health Promotion Agency.

❚ The Alcohol Drug Helpline and website can tell you where to get help near you. Call 0800 787 797 or hit the website for more information.
