2025 Dry January® challenge
The New Year can also be a challenging time for many. Increasing peer pressure to celebrate by drinking at parties and, in some sectors, demanding workloads can contribute to people drinking more around this time of year.
There is also a growing realisation that alcohol can prevent us from achieving our best. From headaches, sleepless nights, and feeling ‘off’ the next day to long-term health issues like high blood pressure, anxiety and cancer, alcohol impacts us in so many ways.
That’s where the Dry January® challenge comes in. With hundreds of thousands of people participating every year, the Dry January® challenge offers the perfect opportunity for a total reset and a chance to re-evaluate your relationship with alcohol. This refreshing challenge is always welcomed by people across the country as they turn towards a more health focused and goal orientated start of the year.
Evidence shows that those who take part in the Dry January® challenge using Alcohol Change UK’s tools and resources double their chance of having a completely alcohol-free month and have significantly improved wellbeing and lower alcohol health risks six months later.
