While our Out of the Darkness Walks provide a powerful sense of community, ISOSLD gatherings offer a more intimate environment for healing and remembrance. These events are designed for those who have lost someone to su***de, providing a safe and supportive space to share stories, honor loved ones, and find comfort among others who understand.

Since choosing recovery from alcohol misuse in 2022, actor Tom Holland has been open about how alcohol affected his mental clarity, sleep, and sense of freedom. Now, over 3.5 years sober, he's thriving. He's even launched a non-alcoholic beer company, Bero, to support others on a similar path!

His story reminds us that recovery is possible, and it’s powerful.
