Alcohol‐related violence is a social phenomenon and a serious public health issue that features regularly in the headlines. This article describes a cognitive behavioural treatment programme designed to help angry, impulsive drinkers, typically young white men, to control their violence, and outlines research undertaken to assess the programme's effectiveness.
