Alcohol impacts our health and wellbeing in many different ways. From causing headaches, sleepless nights, and feeling “off” the next day - to an increased risk of more serious long-term health conditions like increased blood pressure, cholesterol and even types of cancer.

However, reducing your intake can improve your health in many ways, such as...
✔️ Lower blood pressure
✔️ Reduced risk of diabetes
✔️ Lower cholesterol
✔️ Lower risk of stroke, hypertension, cancer and liver disease
✔️ Better-looking skin
✔️ Feeling more energetic
✔️ Better mood, memory and quality of sleep

If you need support in cutting down on alcohol, or stopping completely, reach out for free and non-judgemental support.

January can be a fresh start, but it doesn't mean that the pressure to drink disappears. Recognising pressure, and having steps in place to help you keep control, can be helpful.

Below are a few practical ways to navigate pressure around drinking:
➡️ Be aware of situations where you might be pressured to drink and plan for this beforehand.
➡️ Plan activities that don’t involve drinking.
➡️ Set a limit for events where you are likely to experience pressure.
➡️ Tell someone you trust that you want to stick to a limit so they can have your back.
➡️ Set expectations with others in advance that you won’t be drinking.

Being able to combat pressure to drink can make a big difference when it comes to being in control of your intake.

This month, our social media content will be focusing heavily on Dry January. However, we wanted to remind you that Dry January looks different for everyone.

For some, it’s a month off drinking. For others, it might be cutting down, getting advice, or reaching out for support. If you drink heavily or feel dependent on alcohol, stopping suddenly can be unsafe.
