LANDED comes from a ‘harm-reduction’ approach. We don’t condemn or condone anyone’s substance use. We recognise that young people will engage in risky behaviours, and we aim to provide them with non-biased information to promote positive lifestyle choices.
We will cover subjects like:
- What is alcohol
- The effects of alcohol
- History of alcohol
- Scotland’s relationship with alcohol
- Alcohol and young people
- Units of alcohol
- Harm reduction
Alcohol is legal to drink and has been around forever. We still consume it even though we know how dangerous it can be. This course aims to provide practitioners working with young people a deeper understanding of alcohol and its effects, giving you and your staff team the knowledge, tools, and confidence to open a conversation around alcohol with your service users.
