UK Alcohol Consumption Drops, But Still Above NHS Guidelines
Update: 2025-12-22
Description
Britons Drinking Less Alcohol: A Shift Towards ModerationThe average UK adult now consumes just ten point two drinks a week, the lowest since records began in nineteen ninety, and a quarter less than the peak twenty years ago. This decrease isnt due to more people quitting alcohol, but rather a shift towards more moderate habits overall. Reasons for this change include an aging population, growing health awareness, and rising cost of living. However, the average is still above the NHS guideline of fourteen units a week. Drinkaware encourages checking personal habits, aiming for no more than fourteen units with some alcohol-free days, and trying low or no-alcohol options.
