Met with @PortmanGroup at #LabourConference today Great to understand their role in challenging the alcohol industry to market responsibility and regulate irresponsible advertising. This encourages moderate drinking habits and a balanced understanding of alcohol harm. Thank you for meeting me to discuss this important issue impacting on the health of constituents.

Positive partnerships are at the heart of effective licensing. We're proud that CAP is recognised alongside initiatives such as Pubwatch, Best Bar None and Purple Flag as examples of how collaboration can help reduce alcohol harm and create safer places for everyone. #NLW2026

It’s a criminal offence to buy alcohol for someone under 18. You could face a fine of up to £5,000 or up to 3 months in prison. Or both. For more information visit ➡️ itwillcostyou.com #ItWillCostYou #ProxyPurchasing #UnderageDrinking #AlcoholAwareness

As chair of the Beer APPG I should be able to pull a pint – obviously, I need more practice! My thanks to members of the alcohol labelling regulator Portman Group for an informative roundtable discussion on low and no-alcohol drinks and to Lucky Saint for the beers afterwards.
