The Alcohol Health Alliance is a recently formed group comprised of several of the medical royal colleges, the British Liver Trust and the charity Alcohol Concern. They are calling for tougher alcohol regulation in the face of growing instances of alcohol related harm. They advocate measures including, greater regulation of the drinks industry, better prevention and treatment programmes, and compulsory warnings about alcohol's harmful effects to be included in any form of drink advertising or promotion.
