Young peoples thoughts about alcohol |
‘At last a programme that gives young people the chance to talk about alcohol…'
Suffolk Drug Action Team |
‘A very refreshing video that allows youngsters to have their say … never fails to get a discussion going'
Eden Youth Project |
What happens if you give a camcorder to a group of youngsters and ask them to make a programme about alcohol? The answer is a DVD that takes a serious look at both the pros and cons of drinking and allows viewers to make up their own minds about the subject. The group interviewed people representing different angles on the subject and found a wide range of opinions and information that open up areas for debate. |
Section 1 – looks at the Health Angle and explores some of the implications of excessive or ‘binge' drinking |
Section 2 – explores the Legal Angle from the police perspective |
Section 3 – looks at the Business Angle in terms of employment, tax revenue plus the social side of drinking |
Section 4 – ‘Your Angle' – an open debate by young people sharing their stories and opinions about alcohol |
The programme can be screened in sections and is supported by presenter notes providing additional information and ‘trigger' questions to get the group talking plus contacts from whom additional details on alcohol can be obtained. |
The programme was sponsored by:
Suffolk LEA Advisory Centre, Babergh District Council, Suffolk Health Promotion and made in association with Suffolk Drug Action Team |
