Alcohol-Related Deaths Reach Record High: The Urgent Need for a Smarter Approach

Rethink Drink

Published on: 12/02/2025

he latest figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) have revealed a stark reality—alcohol-related deaths in the UK have reached their highest recorded level. In 2023, 10,473 alcohol-specific fatalities were registered, reflecting a nearly 40% increase since 2019. While this crisis continues to escalate, solutions remain underfunded, and access to effective, evidence-based treatment remains inconsistent. At Rethink Drink, we believe it’s time for a radical shift in how alcohol dependence is approached, moving beyond outdated models of treatment and embracing methods that are proven to work—methods like The Sinclair Method (TSM).
