Alcohol Harm Minimisation Strategy

Alcohol-related harm in our communities

Alcohol-related harm affects many dimensions of personal, whānau and community wellbeing.

We want Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland to be a safe, vibrant and healthy place free from alcohol-related harm.

To help us reach this aspiration, we are guided by a statement of commitment.

Kia mahi tahi te whakaiti i te kino ka hua i te waipiro / Work together to minimise the harm from alcohol.
