It's Alcohol Awareness Week 2018!
Alcohol Awareness Week 2018 runs from Monday 19th - Sunday 25th November. The aim of Alcohol Awareness Week is to encourage you to think about your relationship with alcohol and for everyone to be more aware of their drinking behaviours. The theme of Alcohol Awareness Week 2018 is "Change".
We understand that part of student life is about having fun! However, it is important for students at the University to be mindful about whether your drinking habits are having a negative impact on you and on those around you. Alcohol can affect us physically, as well as affecting our mental health.
