Rehab News:North-west faces greatest alcohol problems
A new report has shown that the north-west of England is most susceptible to be in need of alcohol treatment due to poverty and deprivation levels.
The Association of Public Health Observatories has released a study indicating the effect that alcohol consumption has on various regions across England.
It revealed that men in the most deprived areas of the north-west would, on average, lose 20 months off their life due to drinking. For women, their life expectancy was reduced by nine months on average.
Additionally, deaths caused by alcohol in the north-west rose to 6.4 per cent for men and 4.2 per cent for women. Approximately 22 per cent of men and ten per cent of women would also regularly binge drink.
Professor Mark Bellis, the director of the centre for public health, and co-author of the report said: "Each year more people are developing alcohol related diseases and there are now around 3,260 deaths relating to alcohol every year in England with more in the north-west than in any other region. Every man dying from an alcohol-related cause loses on average 21 years of life and every woman loses 15 years."
He cautioned, "This report catalogues the real price we are paying for cheap alcohol and a culture where drinking to excess is not only tolerated but often encouraged."
Approximately 1.55 million people across England are drinking alcohol at 'harmful levels'. The recommended daily amount is three to four units a day for men and two to three units a day for women.
