Drinking four standard drinks on a single occasion more than doubles the risks of injury in the proceeding hours. This risk increases more rapidly when more than four drinks are consumed on a single occasion. We are all different sizes and our limits vary, don鈥檛 try to keep up with others.

Don鈥檛 let anyone pressure you into drinking more or drinking faster and if your mate asked for a single then don鈥檛 give them a double!

Drinking alcohol quickly can cause you to lose track of what you鈥檝e drank and will cause you to become drunk faster so pace drinks to one or fewer per hour and avoid drinking games. Try Alternate alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

Avoid peer pressure, pace yourself & know your limits.

Make sure you always stick together to ensure a safer night out. If someone disappeared don鈥檛 assume they鈥檝e just gone home. Use apps such as 鈥楩ind my friends鈥� or enable 鈥楲ocation Sharing鈥� on Google Maps so you know where each other are if you鈥檙e finding it difficult to find each other.

Look out for your friends 鈥� don鈥檛 leave anyone behind!

Know the symptoms of drink spiking and remember you can ask at the bar for a drinks cover.

Symptoms include: Difficulty concentrating, blurred vision, memory loss, nausea / vomiting, paranoia, loss of consciousness.

Having your drink spiked with alcohol or drugs can make you vulnerable. You might not notice the difference to the taste of your drink, but the effects can be serious. If you suspect your drink, or the drink of someone else has been spiked tell someone you trust as soon as possible. Speak to venue staff, ask for your drink to be tested. If your condition worsens seek medical attention.

• Always watch your drink and do not leave it unattended.
• Keep an eye on your friends鈥� drinks.
• If you notice someone put something into someone else鈥檚 drinks, let them know.

• Ask at the bar for cover to your drink.
• Do not take drinks from strangers.

Plan your journey home & travel in groups. Book a taxi in advance and only use licenced taxis
