Alcoholnbsp;Strategy .

The government launched Safe. Sensible. Social.; next steps in the national strategy on alcohol . I’ve skimmed through it to see what might be of interest to us, but warn that it is only the first skim and could be missing pieces.

This strategy says the government will:

increase its focus on minority of drinkers who cause or experience the most harm to themselves, their communities and their families. These are:

-Young people under 18 drink alcohol, many of whom we now know is drinking more than their counterparts did a decade and ago;
-18A € “24-year-old binge drinkers, a minority of them are responsible for most alcohol-related crime and disorder in the night-time economy

They also talk about the harmful drinkers if their drinking can cause damage to others (presumably including children).
