Every year, hundreds of thousands of adults take part in the Dry January® challenge, and that includes many of your staff! So why not work with us to help your workplace deliver a fun and engaging support package for all your employees who are taking part?
How the Dry January® challenge can help your workforce
Book your 60-minute seminar for Dry January® and support your staff in developing a healthier relationship with alcohol.
What is it?
The Dry January® challenge is the UK's one-month alcohol-free campaign run by Alcohol Change UK which helps hundreds of thousands of people go alcohol-free for the month of January and reset their relationship with alcohol for the longer-term.
Signing up for the Dry January® challenge with Alcohol Change UK gives you access to a host of free tools including the Try Dry® app, daily motivational emails, a private Facebook community, dedicated web content and inspirational social media throughout January and beyond.
How will it benefit your employees?
There is a growing realisation that alcohol is preventing individuals and teams from achieving their 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. Low productivity, heightened safety risks and a decline in the availability of staff are some of the ways that alcohol can impact organisations too.
Taking part in the Dry January® challenge with Alcohol Change UK offers the opportunity for a total reset for the body and mind where you’ll sleep better, have more energy, enjoy improved mental health and concentration, save money, and feel an amazing sense of achievement.
Participants are encouraged to download Alcohol Change UK’s free Try Dry® app – the tool to rule the Dry January® challenge – where you can collect daily teacups, track your units, calories, and money saved from not drinking, as well as monitor your mood. You can also claim a virtual Dry January® challenge badge at the end to celebrate your achievement!
What else can we offer?
Our seminars are in high demand at this time of year, with businesses in a variety of sectors arranging these to help motivate their employees to support themselves and each other in a month off booze.
