Ok, so we all know university life is not just about studying, but also about socialising, taking part in group activities, and partying. And that's all good but it's easy to get carried away on a night out. This section aims to clue you up enough to stop that happening in the first place, but also covers the best ways to deal with the consequences of you having one too many, or to many too often.

Lots of social acitivies involve alchohol, but it doesn't have to be the focus of a night out. Our alcohol section offers advice on knowing your limits, the dangers of heavy drinking, and dealing with hangovers.

We also have a section with information and advice about drugs, both legal and illegal; so, if you intend to dabble with these, please inform yourself of the associated risks by reading these pages, rather than acting on bad advice and having to deal with the negative consequences, possibly for the rest of your life.
