What to do if someone becomes unconscious after drinking too much alcohol.

Dial 999 straight away and ask for an ambulance

Place the person in the recovery position (see below) so they won't choke if they vomit.

Check their breathing. Be prepared to do mouth to mouth resuscitation.

Keep them warm, but not too hot.

Stay with them at all times. If you need to leave to call an ambulance, go straight back. See links for other sources of help and information.
