Thinking about giving dry January a go?
So the festive season has ended and the New Year has begun. So why not try taking part in dry January? Dry January is the UK's one-month alcohol-free challenge. It isn’t about giving anything up. It’s about getting something back.
By not drinking alcohol for one month
- 70% of people slept better
- 86% saved money
- 65% noticed that their general health had improved
Top tips:
Don’t buy alcohol – if it’s not there the temptation is reduced.
Try having a dry January buddy or friendship group – quitting is always easier with support from others.
Try drinking non-alcoholic drinks when going out, or have a get together with friends making mocktails – the benefits are not having to pay out for a taxi and no hangover in the morning.
Do it for a charity – arrange for friends and family to sponsor you for your chosen charity to complete dry January. You become healthier and a charity’s money pot becomes healthier too.
