Dry July is a national campaign that encourages us to give up alcohol for a month to raise funds for people affected by cancer. It’s also a great opportunity to assess how much you drink, why you drink, and how you can make an intentional effort to reduce your alcohol use over the long term for better health and wellbeing.

Alcohol can play a big role in our wider social culture, and while there’s nothing wrong with enjoying an occasional drink in moderation, we all know alcohol isn’t good for our health. Aside from the misery of hangovers, alcohol consumption is linked to more serious and permanent health problems such as depleted energy, mental health issues, interpersonal violence, chronic disease and addiction.

Take part in Dry July and see just how much better you look, feel and function without booze for a month.
