Report shows the extent of binge drinking among young Irish people

During Men's Health Week, Drinkaware will be highlighting their new campaign – Change the Trend, to improve the health and well being of young Irish men.

More than half of young people who consume alcohol binge drink every week, compared to less than 20% of the overall drinking population.

Young people who drink, particularly young men, are consistently drinking to a harmful level, Drinkaware has warned.
