Alcohol

Most people like a drink now and again, but drinking too much alcohol can lead to crime. Around 80% of disorder crimes in the UK are alcohol related. Consuming regular amounts of alcohol can also lead to serious health problems. In 2009/10 there were 1,057,000 alcohol related admissions to hospital.
