In this episode we speak to Susan Laurie and Sober Dave about Sober Code, which launches today! Susan approached us with the idea of Sober Code a few months ago and we immediately said we'd jump on board to help her however we could.

The idea of Sober Code is simple: to help protect vulnerable people who may be physically dependent on alcohol. It does this by providing a code of ethics for sober coaches and AF communities to abide by, as well as providing resources and links for those who may be at risk of physical alcohol dependence.

We encourage every sober coach or anyone who's involved with AF communities or groups to get in touch with Susan to find out more about Sober Code and how you can show your support: email [email protected]
