Alcohol research – Part of the Picture: Lesbian, gay and bisexual people’s alcohol and drug use in England (2009-2011)


Part of the Picture: Lesbian, gay and bisexual people’s alcohol and drug use in England (2009-2011), Buffin J et al, National LGB Drug and Alcohol Database 

Interim Conclusions

The data so far show four distinct findings:

Across all age groups LGB people are much more likely to use drugs compared to the general population.

Problematic patterns of drinking are much more common among LGB people.

LGB people demonstrate a greater likelihood of being dependent and high levels of substance-dependency compared to the general population.

Significant perceptual and structural barriers exist to seeking information, advice or help among LGB people”
