Local councils in North London are embracing Alcohol Awareness Week, aiming to highlight the dangers of alcohol on people’s health.
The awareness week is organised by Camden-based national charity Alcohol Concern, in collaboration with schools, health services and local authorities.
Local councils and health services are trying to get people to talk about the issues that arise from alcohol and specifically the addiction of alcohol. In January 2016, the Central Medical Officers revised the drinking guidelines: limits for men and women are now the same – no more than 14 units per week. They also specified, “there is now no ‘safe’ level of alcohol.”
The issue as been raised following the release of statistics on alcohol related deaths:
Barnet: 100
Camden: 61
Harringey: 75
Hackney: 63
Islington: 59
