Annemarie Ward is the Chief Executive Officer at Faces & Voices of Recovery UK. She’s a courageous, passionate, and intense advocate for people experiencing substance use disorder. We’ve been Twitter (X) mates since I entered the field and looking to connect with leading voices on social change. Annemarie is currently focused on promoting equitable policies to save lives *and* advance thriving wellness for people in recovery. We talk about recovery walks, health policy, the emotional regulation and depth of relationships that recovery brings, and haggis. That’s right.
