In collaboration with Alcohol Change’s Blue Light Project Rowan Alba’s CARDS have created a full day training session aimed at supporting practitioners to manage problematic alcohol use.

  • Protecting and Improving Public Health
  • Formulate a realistic intervention plan for a change resistant drinker

This training programme can be adapted to suit your organisation. However, we recommend 1.5 days.
