Alcoholics Anonymous To The App Store: My Journey

Samuel Bennett started drinking heavily when he was 14 years old, and went to rehab for the first time at 18. Having relapsed all through his twenties, he says his rock-bottom moment came when he woke up having crashed out on some bin bags in the street. It was then he realised he needed to change his life. Knowing that recovery can be lonely, he created an app which links up people in similar situations, giving them support at the touch of a button. He hopes the app will stop people relapsing and help them turn their lives around.
