The Alcohol Needs Assessment Research Project (ANARP) is the first alcohol needs assessment in England conducted on a national scale. It was commissioned by the Department of Health, and was jointly conducted by St George’s, University of London; Kable Ltd and MORI Social research Institute. Please view: ANARP presentation by Professor Colin Drummond to Alcohol Concern Conference for an overview of the project.

Its main focus was to measure the gap between the demand for and provision of specialist alcohol treatment services in England at a national and regional level. The research consisted of eight related projects that were conducted in parallel over a period of six months between September 2004 and February 2005.
