Survey of British adults on behalf of Addaction about their perceptions of alcohol use
Around three in 10 people (28 per cent) are worried about the alcohol use of over-50s they know, finds the new poll. And one in five (18 per cent) are worried about an older family member or close friend.
The poll found that 19 per cent of those who know someone aged over-50 whose alcohol use they are worried about would feel uncomfortable and 25 per cent think it is not their place to talk to them about it.
