How to party properly

Alcohol

Remember to take breaks from alcoholic drinks and have regular water intervals; this is the best tip for easing tomorrow’s hangover

Have a good meal before you start drinking, this can slow down the absorption of alcohol and prevent you from getting too drunk

Mixing alcohol with other drugs can be very dangerous so avoid using anything else whilst drinking

If drinking spirits, measure them out and dilute them with a mixer of your choice. Stick to your chosen spirit.

Surround yourself with people you know and trust and find support if you feel that you are too drunk

As the night goes on, try switching to a lower alcohol drinks or soft drinks
