There is a strong link between drinking and anti-social behaviour.
Many cities and towns have designated Alcohol Free Zones. They were introduced in 2001 to deal with anti-social drinking in public places.
Anyone found drinking in an Alcohol Free Zone risks a fine of up to £500.
People drinking in public can become abusive or aggressive to those around them. Other people feel intimidated or threatened by this behaviour.
Alcohol affects behaviour and perception, leading to anti-social behaviour or even violence and assault.
People who are drunk in public - even outside of the Alcohol Free Zones - can have their alcohol confiscated and be moved on by the police.
People who are drunk or drunk and disorderly in public can be arrested and face spending the night in jail, fines of up to £5000, a prison sentence and a criminal record.
'Alcohol on the Streets' is available to buy as part of our KS3/4 alcohol leaflets pack and KS3/4 alcohol posters pack. Visit our Literature store to find out more.
