Alcohol Awareness Week 2009

Saturday, 04, Jul 2009 09:39

Alcohol Awareness Week will begin on 19 October and will see a week of activities highlighting the most important issues in relation to alcohol policy. Alcohol Concern will be using the week to try to influence Government and highlight the need to take decisive action on alcohol misuse now.

In our work for AA week we intend to highlight the breadth and depth of alcohol misuse problems, by investigating the impact of alcohol misuse on families, young people and the socially excluded as well as on health and crime. We hope that partner organisations will join us and try to raise awareness of alcohol misuse and the harms they are causing locally and regionally.
