ALCAHOL HEALTH AWARENESS PROMOTION

  • SLOGAN: If your underage drinking your obviously not thinking.
  • If you reduce your drinking you are reducing your risks.
  • By only having 2 drinks of alcahol a day and no more will reduce your risks. Which means 0% for underage drinkers.
  • It is clear that if you have more than two a day it can lead to lung diseases, brain diseases and cancer.
  • Alcahol is toxic and your body is fragile, if you have more than two drinks on any day it will slowly add up in your body and will lead to cancer.
  • Achievement of Key Message: This message can save lives. And risks. Do not underage drink. Why?
  • Police Record, risks like poor behaviour in school self harm, violence, property damage, risky sexual behaviour, serious alcahol problems later in life and much more.
  • My achievement is to slowly stop underage drinking, it is not a good influence if people are being bad role models so we need to teach the younger generations why it's so important so the next generations can also stop.
