In this episode of Believe in People: Addiction, Recovery & Stigma, we meet Henry Beercock, founder of Hull’s rapidly growing sober movement Alcohull Free. After nearly two decades of heavy binge drinking, Henry made a bold decision that changed his life: he stopped drinking, stepped away from his corporate career, and began rebuilding his health, identity and purpose from the inside out.What started as a personal recovery journey quickly evolved into something bigger. Alcohull Free became a cultural shift – a movement for people who are tired of drinking culture but still want to connect, socialise and celebrate without compromise. Henry has created a space where choosing to be alcohol-free is not about restriction, but about reclaiming joy, energy and freedom.This candid and energising conversation explores what sobriety really looks like beyond the stereotypes, and how one person’s transformation can inspire a community-wide rebellion against outdated norms.Whether you’re exploring sobriety, rethinking your relationship with alcohol, or looking for new ways to connect without pressure, this is an episode that could genuinely change everything.In this episode:Two decades of binge drinking and the moment Henry decided to stopLeaving corporate life and rebuilding identityHow Alcohull Free started and why the movement mattersSocial pressures, drinking culture and redefining connectionSobriety as empowerment rather than restrictionCommunity, belonging and the rise of sober spaces in HullTools for anyone curious about living alcohol-freeSearch terms: alcohol recovery podcast UK, sobriety stories, binge drinking recovery, alcohol-free movement, lived experience stories, trauma and recovery, substance misuse.Click here to text our host, Matt, directly!🎧 Enjoyed this episode?
