How much is too much? Units and daily guidelines There is no safe level of drinking if you are under 18 as your brain and liver aren’t fully developed and the toxins from the breakdown of alcohol have a much greater effect. The UK chief medical officers recommend that adults do not regularly exceed: * 2-3 units a day for women * 3-4 units a day for men * No safe limits for under 18’s * an alcohol free childhood is the best option for under 15’s

Your group will be given a topic. You need to prepare a short presentation to outline your group’s views on the topic. At the end of the presentation each group must make a proposal about either; A change to the law OR Guidance needed for young people, families, police or other community members in relation to their topic

GROUP ONE: 57% of young people in Lancashire say that they get their alcohol from their parents/carers. Do you think this is a good way to introduce young people to alcohol or are their parents their ‘suppliers’ ?

GROUP TWO: In some areas of Lancashire activity called the Community Alcohol Network is carried out with lots of different partners. Anti Social Behaviour police patrols are out on Friday and Saturday nights dealing with young people who are drinking on the streets. Do you think this is something that young people should support/get involved in or do you think young people should be allowed to enjoy themselves ?

GROUP THREE: 30% of young people in Lancashire said they were aware of 'drinking dens / party houses' in their area. Can you identify some positive and negative aspects of young people drinking in these areas?
