@MattHancock Great to hear your symptoms are only mild. We are a residential care home with over 80 clients and staff and the only way *any* of us would get tested is if we were so ill we needed hospital admission. None of us can #stayhome How is this OK?
Many of us know alcohol affects the brain, but to what extent? Alcohol is a factor in increasing your risk of dementia and it is the cause of Alcohol-Related Brain Damage (ARBD). Find out more about alcohol and the brain here: alcoholchange.org.uk/alcohol-facts/…
Next week I’ll reach 365 days without having an alcoholic drink. Having stopped for #dryjanuary, I discovered a world of #alcoholfree beers and kept going. I’ve written about it in today’s @Sunday_Mail. #buyapaper #sundaypapers #sober #sobercurious #alcohol #scotland
"It didn’t occur to me that I could stop drinking." Tamsyn's Sober Exposure exhibition celebrates her journey with alcohol, and others’ like hers. Check out her amazing photos, and her story: alcoholchange.org.uk/blog/2019/sobe… #AlcoholAwarenessWeek #SoberExposure
Alcohol and mental health problems are often linked - but which came first? In this blog by @JoPuddephatt and @Laura_Goodwin_ from @livuniaddiction we discuss current research about the links between drinking and mental health: alcoholchange.org.uk/blog/2019/alco… #AlcoholAwarenessWeek
“My dad always liked to drink. Growing up I remember him holding a can, being silly drunk, and falling asleep on the kitchen floor. But there was a lot more to him than that.” Read Gemma’s story. alcoholchange.org.uk/story/gemmas-s… #AlcoholAwarenessWeek
Big thanks to the very lovely Andy and Richard from @ukpowernetworks for getting here so fast today. Normal service will resume shortly! 😁🤗🤗 #PowerRangers #emergencyservices
The Words We Use - and how they can shape attitudes. In the light of the #Panorama documentary about #WhorltonHall, we thought we would repost this article written by Emma in 2015. It's a very sad #ThrowbackThursday... linkedin.com/pulse/words-we…
Please RT. One of the people we support is a volunteer here and the work they do is fantastic. #wildwood @WildwoodTrust
@TheSmallPlaces @CareQualityComm Yes - you can find the 'Guide to Ratings' on the site (or you could the last time we looked!). PM if you can't find it, I think I downloaded it.
Good work! We are keen to raise awareness of ARBD too. I bet most people would say that the worst possible outcome of heavy drinking is liver disease/cancer. But cancer can be curable, right? Or is it worse to not be able to make any new memories and need 24h care forever? #ARBD
Are you concerned about a loved one with ARBD who maybe isn't yet receiving any support? This is a great resource. Well done @AlcoholChangeUK
This handbook for families, friends and carers of people with ARBD Alcohol-Related Brain Damage contains information about the condition, what treatment looks like and much more: alcoholchange.org.uk/alcohol-facts/…
@DanielMushens We'll keep our eyes peeled 👀
That's great news. When do we get to see this in print? :)

#5jobs examples that our team members have had before joining us: - landlady - artist - cleaner/housekeeper - welder - mother A very broad mix of skills/backgrounds connects us in a meaningful way with everyone we support :) #everyoneisanindividual #socialcare #ARBD #CareerChange
How do you work out whether you should cut out or cut down on alcohol? “There’s a fear that one drink will lead us back into old ways, but ‘never drink again’ is not easy to swallow either. So, what to do?” Read Lauren Booker's blog here: alcoholchange.org.uk/blog/2018/cut-…
That's incredibly kind of you to say, thank you @AngelaBlair75 ❤️❤️
