Goals / Remit
SHAAP was established by the Scottish Medical Royal Colleges and Faculties to raise awareness about alcohol-related problems.
The work we do involves:
Raising awareness of the nature and extent of alcohol-related harm in Scotland;
Reviewing established and emerging evidence and carrying out new research to identify the most effective interventions to reduce alcohol-related health damage;
Specifying how effective alcohol strategies and policies can be practically implemented at a Scottish, UK and international level;
Campaigning for the adoption of effective strategies to reduce the burden of alcohol-related harm in Scotland.
The main aims of SHAAP are:
To raise awareness and understanding of alcohol-related health problems with health practitioners, policy makers and the public.
To evaluate current research and identify strategies to reduce alcohol-related health damage based on the best available evidence.
To work together with key organisations in the alcohol field in Scotland, the rest of the UK and worldwide, in tackling alcohol misuse.Main EU files targeted
