Enjoy the World Cup Safely This Alcohol Awareness Week

Good morning,

As excitement builds around the World Cup, we want everyone in our community to enjoy the tournament safely, responsibly, and respectfully.

As part of Alcohol Awareness Week, we are sharing the attached posters to raise awareness of alcohol-related safety messages and to help ensure everyone can enjoy the celebrations without harm.

Please remember:

⚽ Drink responsibly and look after yourself, your friends, and family members.

⚽ It is illegal to buy or supply alcohol to anyone under the age of 18. The attached Community Alcohol Partnership poster highlights the consequences of purchasing alcohol for underage individuals, including potential fines and criminal sanctions.

⚽ Plan your journey home before heading out and never drink and drive.

⚽ Be mindful of others, whether you're watching matches at home, in licensed premises, or at community events.

⚽ Trust your instincts. If you are out socialising and feel unsafe, uncomfortable, or simply not quite right, remember that many venues support the Ask for Angela scheme. By discreetly asking staff for "Angela", trained staff can provide assistance and support to help you stay safe.

Alcohol Awareness Week is a great opportunity to enjoy social occasions while looking out for one another and promoting a safer community for everyone.

Thank you for your support, and we hope you enjoy the World Cup responsibly.

Stay safe and enjoy the football!

Kind regards,

Your local Belgrave Beat Team
