The Dry January® 10k is brought to you by the charity Alcohol Change UK.

Your involvement will support our mission for a world free from the harm caused by alcohol.

We’re not anti-alcohol. We are against the harm that it causes. Alcohol harm affects millions of families, damaging and ending lives. It impacts all of us, whether through a loved one’s suffering, damaged communities or avoidable costs to frontline services.

But alcohol harm is not inevitable.

We work across the UK to reduce alcohol harm.

We do this with compassion, with ambition, and by seeking and telling the truth about alcohol harm and how to end it. Through our information and advice content – accessed every 24 seconds – and our Try Dry® app, we provide practical tools and solutions to support those who need us.

Change is possible.

By taking part in the Dry January® 10k - let’s create that change together.
