This information on the prevalence of problem drinking at ward level is given in the 76
page Public Health Profiles for Hull and the Hull Atlas (www.hullpublichealth.org).
As part of the 2009 Social Capital Survey, survey respondents were asked the
frequency at which they drank their alcohol in (i) pubs, clubs and restaurants, etc; (ii) a
home or at the homes of friends and family; and (iii) elsewhere. Figure 137 illustrates
the responses drinking alcohol in these locations “almost always”, “often” and
“sometimes”. The underlying data are given in the APPENDIX on page 882.
Drinking within one‟s own home, the home of friends or family and in pubs and
restaurants was reported as “almost always” by around 30% of respondents. Seven in
ten (70.6%) of respondents never drank in locations other than homes or pubs and
restaurants with those aged 16-24 more likely to have drunk alcohol in other locations
(19.3% drinking elsewhere either sometimes, often or almost always), possibly due to
the fact that a small proportion of this age group would be underage and unable to drink
in alcohol-serving establishments or not allowed to drink within the home. Other than
this there were no clear trends in terms of location of alcohol consumption by sub-group.
