" A national alcohol charity has launched a new campaign encouraging people to stay off booze throughout the month of January. Alcohol Concern&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Dry January&amp;#039; campaign challenges people to avoid drinking alcohol for 31 days in order to feel better, reduce their waistline and save money. It suggests that people can motivate themselves by asking friends and family members to sponsor them, with the proceeds helping to boost the charity&amp;#039;s fundraising efforts. Meanwhile, the British Liver Trust has launched an awareness campaign that urges people to follow its recommendations for alcohol consumption throughout the year. It is concerned that Britons&amp;#039; daily consumption of alcohol, along with poor dietary choices and lack of exercise, is causing a rise in the occurrence of liver disease. Andrew Langford, the trust&amp;#039;s chief executive, told the BBC that improving liver health is not simply about a &amp;#039;quick fix&amp;#039; in January. &amp;#039;To repair the liver and keep it healthy, people need to follow our three-step plan all-year-round: 1) take two to three days off alcohol every week; 2) get regular exercise; 3) cut down on sugar and fat.&amp;#039; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
