Health experts have issued a warning to anyone taking part in Dry January.
The campaign, started by charity Alcohol Change UK in 2013, challenges members of the public to go alcohol-free for the entire first month of the year. Around 130,000 people took part in Dry January last year, and even more are expected to take up the challenge this year.
But experts have warned those with alcohol dependency issues should be careful when it comes to cutting out the booze. Health professionals have warned of the dangers of going "cold turkey" with alcohol as many people across the country take part in Dry January.
