Alcohol harm and ethnicity: how does alcohol use differ across ethnic groups, and what does this mean for treatment services?

In this AHA Seminar Session, Dr Laura Goodwin and Jo-Anne Puddephatt will present their latest findings from their Alcohol Change UK funded project. This project examines how UK population data provides insight into how alcohol use (and the association of mental health) differs across ethnic groups.

They will also share preliminary qualitative findings regarding how experiences of alcohol use among ethnic minority groups relates to their experiences of seeking mental health support.

Alcohol Focus Scotland and Alcohol Marketing Expert Network Report Launch


June 30, 2022

Online
Thursday, 30 June 2022

Join Alcohol Focus Scotland and the Alcohol Marketing Expert Network for the online launch of their new report.

Exposure to alcohol marketing causes consumption. It encourages positive attitudes towards alcohol, influences our drinking behaviour and creates a culture where regular alcohol consumption is considered normal and desirable. At the same time, alcohol causes more than 200 diseases and conditions, and someone loses their life to alcohol somewhere in the world every ten seconds.

This new report presents evidence of the impact of alcohol marketing on people with (or at risk of) an alcohol problem, children and young people, and the general population.

11:00 am: The Covid Hangover report launch - IAS


July 26, 2022

Online
Tuesday 26 July 2022
11:00AM – 12:00PM

We are pleased to invite you to a webinar to launch our new modelling report, which looks at how changes in drinking patterns during the pandemic could lead to thousands of additional disease cases and death.

The pandemic saw a polarisation in drinking, with light and moderate drinkers generally consuming less, and heavier drinkers consuming more. This led to a 20% increase in alcohol-specific deaths in England from 2019-2020.

Our new study - with chronic disease modelling specialists HealthLumen - looks at three scenarios for how drinking patterns could continue between now and 2035, and we project the disease, deaths and NHS cost associated with each scenario.

In this event we will discuss the report findings and policy implications. Sheffield University has developed a similar modelling report, which will be presented by Colin Angus.
