Around 30000 people live in the diverse region of the Kimberley in Western Australia, a significant proportion of whom are Indigenous. Both Indigenous and non-Indigenous members of Kimberly communities drink alcohol and report significantly higher rates of alcohol related harm than the rest of the State. Although alcohol supply restrictions are only one aspect of a strategy to reduce alcohol related harm, restrictions imposed in communities are bringing substantial benefits. This report discusses the role of ‘dry’ towns with liquor restrictions within a comprehensive approach to alcohol-related harm minimisation, and the measured benefits tailored activities within Kimberley towns have produced, including better health, social, education and public order outcomes as well as improvements for the situation of children in these communities. However, criticisms of blanket approaches and the limitations of a location-based resolution are also addressed in the article as it explores the multi-faceted nature of reducing alcohol-related harm in the Kimberley region.
