Drug and Alcohol Awareness FAQ
There are four main signs of alcohol dependence in a person. These include:
1) Worrying about where their next drink is coming from and planning social, family and work events around alcohol
2) Finding they have a compulsive need to drink and finding it hard to stop once they start
3) Waking up and drinking – or feeling the need to have a drink in the morning
4) Suffering from withdrawal symptoms, such as sweating, shaking and nausea, which stop once they drink alcohol
There are many signs, both physical and behavioural, that indicate drug use. Each drug has its own unique manifestations, but there are some general indications that a person is using drugs:
1) Sudden change in behaviour
2) Mood swings; irritable and grumpy and then suddenly happy and bright
3) Withdrawal from family members
4) Careless about personal grooming
5) Loss of interest in hobbies, sports and other favourite activities
6) Changed sleeping pattern; up at night and sleeping during the day
7) Red or glassy eyes
8) Sniffly or runny nose
Binge drinking is the practice of consuming large quantities of alcohol in a single session, usually defined as five or more drinks at one time for a man, or four or more drinks at one time for a woman. About 90% of the alcohol consumed by youth under the age of 21 in the United Kingdom is in the form of binge drinking.

Do courses expire?
There is no expiry date on course credits. Once a credit has been bought it can be allocated at any time. However, should the credit have been allocated to the delegate, each learner then has 12 months to complete the course.
In other words, unallocated course credits have no expiry date. If for example you ordered 1000 licences, and allocated 600 courses in year 1, you would have 400 licences left to allocate in year 2.
