Week 12: Alcohol - Binge Drinking


My chosen topic for week 12 - is on Binge Drinking.


Binge drinking is an issues which is faced in England everyday. The definition of this is drinking as much alcohol as you can within a certain time. This is often done in groups. This tends to be very common up on university students, hence why I have chosen this topic.


There are many health implications due to such a rapid alcohol consumptions which people tend to ignore. Crime rate has also risen due to the amount of problems caused because of this issue. According to the government binge drinking cost England £20 billion a year!
