How much is too much? Drinking, you and your mates

For many young people, drinking alcohol is a part of life. But how much do you know about how alcohol affects your body – both now and later on? How can you help reduce the risks to your personal safety when you drink? This leaflet will help you make choices about how much you drink.

It tells you how alcohol can affect you, explains how you can stay safe when drinking and explains what to do if someone is in trouble after drinking too much. It’s not about stopping drinking. It’s more about making sure it plays a positive part in your day-to-day life.
