Veronica meets Dr. Emily Nicholls to discuss the No and Low alcohol market. The deliberate blurring of marketing by alcohol companies and whether the alcohol-free market is a good or bad thing. Dr Emily Nicholls is a Lecturer in Sociology at the University of York, UK. Her research interests include gender, identity and alcohol consumption. Emily\u2019s research has spanned different areas of drinking and non-drinking over the last ten years, from the \u2018girls\u2019 night out\u2019 to drinking patterns and practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. She has also undertaken research into women\u2019s experiences of early sobriety and, more recently, the ways in which \u2018No and Low\u2019 alcohol drinks are marketed and used by both drinkers and non-drinkers.\n\xa0\nTo learn more, visit the show notes.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
