Alcohol


The South East is a region which enjoys a generally high standard of living and health. Nonetheless, there are significant challenges for the many individuals and organisations with a role to play in promoting the public’s health in the region. Alcohol consumption, and its consequences for health and social wellbeing, is one of them. Men and women in the region have relatively high rates of drinking compared to those in many other regions, and the impact of alcohol is widespread: on mortality and ill health, on crime and productivity, on the future health of today’s children and young people.

Below are resources relating to alcohol which have been organised at both a regional and national level.
