YOUTH COMMISSION ON ALCOHOL ANNOUNCES FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS!


After a range of meetings with high profile industry experts, five intense residentials and two international study visits, the ground-breaking Youth Commission on Alcohol has come to an end.

The young Commissioners have attended their final residential meeting where they finalised the recommendations which they have came up with during the year long project which examined Scotland's relationship with alcohol.

They have identified eight key recommendations focussed around education, social marketing, advertising and availability to name a few. The young people have today presented their final recommendations to the Scottish Government.
