WITH Christmas almost here, the region’s peak alcohol and drug misuse advocacy group has urged parents and other adults to adopt a zero-tolerance approach to underage drinking.
As increased police patrols and designated driver campaigns and help make our community safer during the holiday season, Substance Misuse Limestone Coast believe underage drinking is one danger often overlooked and dismissed during the festive period.
The group say parents are the solution to the underage drinking problem and is encouraging adults to ensure no child is participating in alcohol use.
Substance Misuse Limestone Coast project officer Sophie Bourchier said parents play a pivotal role in driving attitudinal change and zero-tolerance messages were the most protective against alcohol use and consequences.
