Drive to raise awareness of alcohol misuse
West Yorkshire Probation Trust will be working with other agencies next week, encouraging people to have conversations about the health risks, social problems, stigmas and taboos associated with alcohol as well as encouraging people to drink sensibly and promote sensible drinking.
Jude Roberts, West Yorkshire Probation Trust’s Partnerships Manager said; “It really is time to talk about drinking. The effects of alcohol misuse impacts not only on individuals but their families and communities.
“Alcohol misuse can give rise to serious problems of disorderly conduct, nuisance, criminal damage and alcohol-related assaults.”
