Ex-drink victim's top job
Western Mail, Friday January 27 1984
A man whose life was nearly ruined by drink has won a top post
in a new alcoholics-aid organisation.
Mr Alan Douglas, aged 5, a full-time worker at the Swansea Alcohol
Advice Centre, has been appointed Welsh representative of Alcohol
Concern, a new body set up to co-ordinate help for alcoholism victims.
Former Customs officer Mr Douglas said that 17 years ago he was
on the point of losing his job and wife because of drink.
"Through the help of volunteer workers I managed to get over
the addiction and from then on I decided to help people who suffered
the same problem I did." he said.
