Join Change Grow Live – Connecting London to mark this year’s Alcohol Awareness Week which runs from Monday 16-22 November on the theme of ‘Alcohol and mental health’. The campaign provides an ideal opportunity to highlight the link between alcohol and mental health and how by making changes to our drinking behaviour we can reduce our risk of developing or worsening mental health problems such as anxiety and depression.
Connecting London is a partnership of Change Grow Live services across the London area. During Alcohol Awareness Week, we’ll be hosting events and activities on Zoom and sharing resources. For more information and to access the full timetable, click here.
We will kick start the week with an online event via Zoom on Monday 16th Of November at 11am. The event will be focused around a Q&A session with our very own Dr Julie Scheiner (Chartered Psychologist) who will be answering questions on the effect of alcohol on mental health. If you would like to send in a question for Dr Julie beforehand please email to thealcoholservice.info@cgl.org.uk

We’d love to meet as many carers on day as possible. There is no need to register, and the log-in details are the same for the morning and afternoon:
