We all experience stress and anxiety in different ways. Whether it's related to our work, studies, or other life challenges, it can sometimes lead to us drinking more alcohol than we'd like.

Cutting down on our drinking, even a little, can lessen our anxiety and make us feel more focused, energised and productive. Come and see us tomorrow at The Albany Arcade, Halifax Borough Market to see how we can help.

Whether it's long hours, stress, blurred lines between work and home, or peer pressure to drink alcohol at workplace socials, there are so many ways work and alcohol are linked.
This , Alcohol Change UK are opening the conversation about the relationship between alcohol and work and how making changes to our drinking, even a little, can make a big difference to improving our health, productivity and happiness.
