Alcohol Awareness Week: 3-9 July

June 29, 2023

This year’s Alcohol Awareness Week takes place from 3-9 July and for this year the theme is alcohol and cost. Alcohol Awareness Week is a week dedicated to raising awareness, advocating for change, and helping to improve individual’s relationship with alcohol. The alcohol care team aim to ensure that colleagues, patients and visitors have better knowledge around alcohol which will then enable them to make informed choices about their alcohol intake.

Are you curious about the impact alcohol may or may not be having on you or someone else? Want to know more about its short and long term effects, its effects on your physical mental health, on families, society, money and even crime? Want to know about units or even try some alcohol free drinks? If so why not pop along to one of the alcohol awareness stands being hosted by our alcohol care team from 1.30pm – 3.30pm at the below locations.

  • Tuesday 4 July, main entrance, City
  • Wednesday 5 July, main entrance, Rowley
  • Thursday 6 July, main entrance, Sandwell

The alcohol care team will be on hand answering your questions, offering advice, handouts and signposting to a variety of alcohol support services across the borough. The team will also be joined by Aquarius (the alcohol, drugs and gambling service for adults across the Midlands) and other community alcohol service providers.
