Think Alcohol – New Website Launch
The new Think Alcohol website, hosted on iZone, launched on 7 July 2026. The website has been co-produced with Young Health Champions, ensuring that the content reflects the views, experiences and needs of young people. It provides accessible information, advice and resources to help young people make informed decisions about alcohol and understand its impact on health and wellbeing.
If you are a young person looking for information about alcohol, making safer choices and support services, please visit iZone Think Alcohol.
Alcohol Awareness Week will take place from 6 -12 July 2026.
Each year, thousands of people experience long-term health problems as a result of the alcohol they drink, or die from alcohol-related causes. But this is preventable. For more information about the campaign, please visit the Alcohol Change UK website.
As part of the 2025 campaign, Alcohol Change UK shone a light on how alcohol can harm our health and wellbeing on a daily basis. This can be from the quality of the sleep we get, to our relationships with the people we love.
See the Alcohol Change UK Factsheets for more information about how drinking can impact young people:
