Our website information about alcohol and cancer has been approved in its entirety by Drinkaware’s independent medical advisory panel made up of senior medical and clinical professionals. The overwhelming medical consensus is that there are many risk factors involved with cancer including alcohol and our information and advice reflects this. The website also leaves people in no doubt as to the links that do exist between alcohol and cancer. The report’s allegations around our breast cancer information are based on a highly selective and partisan reading of the site. Drinkaware has consistently stressed the link between alcohol and breast cancer and the importance of increasing public awareness of the issue.
