According to new research, some听90,000 people could die as a result of their drinking over the next ten years. Last week a coroner warned of the dangers of binge drinking after the death of a talented schoolgirl who is believed to have drunk up to half a litre of vodka at a party. The YWCA is听a charity which works with young disadvantaged women. It is听concerned about the increase in the number of reports听of young women getting out of control after drinking alcohol听and听has organised a conference to consider what can be done to tackle this problem. Reporter Nicky Barranger talks to some young women in Northampton about their听experiences of binge drinking. To discuss possible solutions, Jane is then joined by Sarah Payne, Chief Executive of the YWCA and听Professor Ian Gilmore, President of the Royal College of Physicians and听Chair of their Alcohol Committee.
Women Finding Solutions - Binge drinking Conference takes place on Wednesday 21st October听in London
