What's the Damage

 
Thank you for taking the time to complete our survey.
"What's the damage" is being administered by the Health Improvement service at NHS Lancashire care foundation trust in partnership with the Lancashire Alcohol Network

During Alcohol Awareness week 2011, "What's the Damage?" will help us to understand the real & hidden consequences of alcohol consumption and misuse in the population of Lancashire.
If the survey raises any issues for you and you need more support in dealing with an alcohol related problem please find details of treatment services in your area on our Facebook page. Please join our network group on Facebook
