A literature review of evidence on drinking patterns among minority ethnic groups in the UK over the last 15 years and on service provision for this group has been produced by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. See the the report and summary page here.
The review:
- describes drinking levels as reported in national surveys and local research;
- considers why drinking rates among ethnic groups may change over time;
- examines help-seeking, support and service provision for minority ethnic groups;
- examines how services are equipped to respond to the needs of minority ethnic groups.
