The Alcohol Action Network is a new project from Alcohol Focus Scotland bringing together people with lived and living experience of alcohol harm to help influence change across Scotland.

The Alcohol Action Network brings together a diverse group of people from across Scotland who are interested in:

  • Influencing alcohol policy and public discussion.
  • Raising awareness about alcohol harm.
  • Supporting communities to advocate for change.
  • Sharing lived experience perspectives in meaningful and constructive ways.
  • Building a skilled, supportive, and credible advocacy network.

The network recognises that lived experience is valuable expertise. Advocates are not external consultees - they are members of a national team working together to influence change.

Our Alcohol Action Network will meet regularly, shaping our policy and campaigns going forward.

Recruitment for the Network is currently closed, however, there may be future opportunities to join!
