MP Dan Carden heads to White House as he continues addiction recovery campaign

Liverpool MP Dan Carden has met with officials from US President Joe Biden's office as he continues his fight to raise awareness of addiction recovery.

Mr Carden was the first Member of Parliament to speak openly about being in recovery from alcoholism in July 2021. Since then, he has established AA meetings at the Houses of Parliament and campaigned extensively on addiction treatment and recovery related issues.

As part of his campaign for recovery, the Walton MP recently visited Washington D.C for meetings with members of the Biden Administration and a number of senior White House advisers to learn about steps the US government is taking to help those dealing with addiction.
