More about The Alcohol Education Trust
The AET works across the UK ensuring that young people stay safe around alcohol. This includes ensuring that: • Young people of all abilities learn to stay safe around alcohol by equipping them with the skills and resilience to make more informed decisions and choices. • Those working with young people including teachers, school nurses and youth leaders are knowledgeable and equipped to teach prevention in an engaging and effective way • Parents and carers are aware of their responsibilities as regards alcohol, that they set boundaries and are good role models. • The AET materials and resources are not only engaging and interactive, but are rigorously and independently evaluated and so we can show that ‘talk about alcohol effectively raises the age that young people start to drink whole drinks as well as improving knowledge and engagement.

“Engaging children of all abilities and backgrounds before they begin drinking helps them build resilience skills, to know how to avoid and resist risky situations and to look after themselves and each other in a variety of settings."
