The NHS Drinking website and 'Alcohol Effects' campaign are to be de-commissioned, but NHS Choices alcohol pages will continue to offer a range of tools, information and advice. Organisations can also use NHS Choices website content for free by registering as a syndicate partner. Change4Life also has alcohol pages as part of the healthy lifestyles campaign.
The NHS Choices alcohol pages (www.nhs.uk/LiveWell/Alcohol) include a number of tools including an online self-assessment tool (based on the AUDIT), a desktop
alcohol tracker, and an iphone drinks tracker app.
The industry funded www.drinkaware.co.uk also provides a range of alcohol-related information, including free unit wheels and fact sheets available to order. Drinkline, a 24 hour alcohol information and support line will provide advice and local service information on 0800 917 8282.
The Alcohol Learning Centre is a comprehensive resource of alcohol-related guidance, e-learning, research and resources.
