People are pledging to curb their booze intake after signing up to dry January, says Alcohol Concern
FOUR in five people have pledged to cut down on their booze intake after taking part in a dry January.
More than 80 per cent of those who took part in Alcohol Concern's campaign have revealed they are looking to curb their drinking following 31 days off the booze.
The results were revealed through a survey asking their reasons as to why they signed up and whether they had noticed any benefits.
More than 55 per cent said it had helped them to save cash and the majority said they had got involved for health reasons and also to prove to themselves they could do it.

“Stop-tober....Dry January.....
Who do you think you are dealing with?
Why do these campaigns always have to be advertized to the public on kindergarten or pre-schooler level?
This is so patronizing!”
