It's Alcohol Awareness Week, running from 7-13 July 2025, on the theme of alcohol and work.

Work-related stress can often influence drinking behaviours, whether it’s after-hours socialising or using alcohol to unwind. Alcohol Awareness Week is a time to reflect on our relationship with alcohol and how it affects both personal wellbeing and professional life.

Whether you're looking to support a healthier workplace culture or get tips on managing your own drinking under pressure — every small step counts.
