This episode from The Snug is all about our visit to the AA presentation at the Houses of Parliament hosted by Dan Carden MP. Following on from his 'Choose to Live' speech in the House in 2021, this event was about helping professionals and Parliamentarians get a better understanding of Alcoholics Anonymous. One of their objectives is to dispel the myth that AA is in any way a ‘secret society’ - while members are anonymous, the organisation is most definitely not. Despite Emma's run-in with the scones, an inspiring day was had.
The chat then moves on to some of the other fellowships that have grown out of AA since it started 75 years ago.

Our own Kennedy Street Recovery Resource List has details of most fellowships mentioned (Al-Anon, Al-Ateen, Sex Addicts Anonymous, etc)
