FANCY having a drink or two this weekend but not sure when to stop?

Then a unique alcoholic guidance course rolling into Renfrewshire could be for you.

The Count 14 tour aims to put shoppers’ knowledge of what 14 units means in terms of alcoholic drinks to the test.

With the UK Chief Medical Officer’s guidelines stating that men and women should drink no more than 14 units of alcohol a week to reduce the risks of harm, the roadshow will challenge shoppers to estimate how many of their favourite drinks make up the weekly maximum guideline.

Staff will be on hand to bring to life how quickly 14 units can add up.

The guidelines also highlight that, if people do regularly drink around 14 units per week, it should be spread over three days or more, with some alcohol-free days.

Linda de Caestecker, NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s director of public health, said: “We all know there are recommended weekly guidelines for alcohol. It’s important that people know the guidelines and the risks they may face if regularly drinking more than that.”

The roadshow will be at the Asda store in the Phoenix Retail Park, Linwood Road, Paisley, on Friday.
