About Us

At Alcohol Free Sikhs (AFS) we are a movement grounded in the teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, promoting health, unity, and self-awareness. Our vision is to enhance the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of the Sikh community and beyond by inspiring a lifestyle rooted in Oneness, Kindness, and Universal Compassion.

We believe that every individual deserves the opportunity to live with clarity, peace, and purpose — free from the emotional and physical burden of alcohol dependency.

Enhancing Lives Through Alcohol-Free Living

Alcohol Free Sikhs is a health and wellbeing platform empowering individuals to care for their mind and body, so they can live their best lives. Our work is inspired by the timeless values of Sikhism — equality, selfless service (seva), and truthful living (sat).

We work directly with Gurdwaras, health professionals, and recovery experts to deliver impactful, culturally aware education and support programmes for the community. Whether you’re beginning your journey to sobriety or exploring a more balanced relationship with alcohol, we’re here to support you with empathy and understanding.
