ALCOHOL AND YOUR
KIDS BROCHURES
The risks of accidents, injuries,
violence and self-harm are high
among drinkers aged under the age
of 18. With summer holidays
kicking off, community pharmacy
can play an important role in
providing parents and young people
with information to help reduce the
risk of harm from alcohol.
Two brochures available free of
charge are:
- ‘Reduce your risk: New National
Guidelines for Alcohol
Consumption’ and
- ‘Alcohol and your kids: A guide for
parents and carers.
If you want to order these as a
valuable resource for your
pharmacy, go to
www.alcohol.gov.au and go to the
‘resources and publications’ page.
