Generation alcohol: is drinking damaging childhood? Alcohol Concern Annual Conference and AGM

The trend for drinking at home has risen sharply in recent years. What does this mean for parents and their children? Youth drinking and the generational impact of parental drinking are two ongoing issues of concern to treatment providers, politicians and the public. Alcohol Concern’s flagship event of the year will hear from academics, experts and politicians on what needs to be done to protect children from alcohol harm.

Why has young people's average consumption risen to nearly 15 units a week?  What role does marketing play?  Does the rise in home drinking mean more children being affected by parental alcohol use?  How can we support the whole family to tackle alcohol-related harms and what support is available for young people who develop a problem with alcohol?

All these issues will be discussed at the 2010 Alcohol Concern conference through a series of high profile, expert presentations and workshops from leading academics, policy experts and practitioners in the field.

Conference programme: The conference programme has a mixture of high profile plenary speakers, in-depth workshops and a panel debate.  Download a copy of the conference flyer (pdf).
