Protect our young people from alcohol harm

Here in the North East we have the highest rate of under 18s in specialist alcohol treatment in England – twice the national rate.

That's why we are re-launching our campaign calling for more to be done to protect children and young people from exposure to alcohol, particularly through marketing and advertising, which encourages them to drink earlier and to consume more.

We've already received support from thousands of North Easterners and they have signed our petition to restrict alcohol marketing. Visit our campaign page for more information and to pledge your support.
