14 units is roughly the equivalent of 6 pints of average-strength beer or 6 medium glasses of wine.

Simple Tips for Cutting Down

1. Make a Plan
Set a limit on how much you intend to drink before you start.

2. Set a Budget
Take only a fixed amount of money for alcohol, so you don’t overspend.

3. Let Them Know
Inform your friends and family that you’re cutting back—they can offer valuable support.

4. Take It a Day at a Time
Gradually reduce your intake each day. Every small step is an achievement.

5. Choose Smaller Sizes
Enjoy a drink, but opt for smaller servings. Try bottled beer instead of pints or a small glass of wine instead of a large one.

6. Go for Lower-Strength Drinks
Swap stronger beers or wines for ones with a lower alcohol by volume (ABV), which is listed on the bottle.

7. Stay Hydrated
Drink a glass of water before having alcohol and alternate alcoholic drinks with water or other non-alcoholic beverages.

8. Take a Break
Have several alcohol-free days each week to give your body a rest.
