What are you doing for #COAWeek2025?

We would love to hear your plans are for this year’s children of alcoholics week?

As we enter the 16th year of COA week, Nacoa invite media agencies, businesses, charities and the general public to get involved so we can continue to reach the 2.6 million children in the UK living with a parent who drinks too much.

We would love to feature your work on COAWeek.org.uk. Contact us via the website or email admin@nacoa.org.uk.

For ideas of ways to help, visit the COA Week website here.
