The 11th-17th November is Alcohol Awareness Week, and this year the theme is ‘Alcohol and Me’.
“During this year’s Alcohol Awareness Week we will be encouraging people to test their knowledge around the drinking guidelines and health impacts associated with drinking. We will be launching a series of short quizzes to improve understanding and to motivate us all to think about the ways in which we drink, and to consider if it’s time to make a change. We’ll be encouraging people to get talking about alcohol, to start breaking down the shame and stigma that surrounds alcohol problems.” – Alcohol Change UK
Alcohol Change UK are providing posters, factsheets and content for social media posts. We think these would work great alongside our resources.
Lesson Plans
Did you know we have over 100 lesson plans to help support schools with their PSHE? This year we’ve put some of our favourite alcohol awareness lesson plans together into an e-book for KS3 and 4.

One 2 Many Programme
If you’re looking for an interactive and fun way to educate your young people on drugs and alcohol misuse, then look no further! One 2 Many is a programme which uses drama and discussion-based workshops to help young people learn the ins and outs of alcohol and ‘legal highs’.
Already sorted your timetable for Alcohol Awareness Week? No problem! Alcohol is an all-year-round issue after all. Lots of schools like to book One 2 Many for an end of term treat (and a good reminder for the young people before they go on their holidays!)
Training
RSE 2020 is fast approaching, and many schools are implementing the new guidelines now. We offer training on How to Work Effectively with Children and Young People on Relationships / RSE and Health Education – and the tools learned in this training are great for lessons on alcohol awareness.
