Excessive drinking is a major cause of disease and injury, accounting worldwide for 9.2% of disability adjusted life years with only tobacco smoking and high blood pressure as higher risk factors. For the NHS alone, the estimated financial burden of alcohol abuse is around £2.7billion including hospital admissions and attendance at A&E and primary care (The cost of alcohol harm to the NHS in England, DH, 2008). Health inequalities are clearly evident as a result of alcohol-related harm where Department of Health analysis of ONS data indicates that alcohol-related death rates are about 45% higher in areas of high deprivation.
