What is "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly"?
The Cheshire Police website will be updated every week with new
information and advice about wide range of issues around drinking
during the Christmas period. During the seasonal period there is a
significant increase in alcohol related incidents
and this campaign will discuss these issues and will offer advice
and information about how to keep safe this winter.
Cheshire Police aren't saying that you can’t drink, just that if
you do drink make sure you stay in control so that
you don't put yourself or anyone else in
danger.
This weeks focus is on The Ugly - Vulnerability.
Vulnerability
80% of disorder crimes involving vulnerability (including
violence, rape, domestic abuse, sexual abuse and sexual assault) in
the UK last year were influenced in some way by alcohol. It is
reported that around 60% of rape cases reported involve
alcohol.
In an emergency where there is an immediate threat to life or
property, always call 999. To contact your local domestic abuse
unit call the Cheshire Constabulary on 0845 458 0000.
