16+ Alcohol & Cannabis Toolkit

This toolkit includes all materials to support workshops on alcohol and cannabis for young adults aged 16-25. The toolkit includes an implementation guide, a USB and hard copies of resources, which work in tandem with bespoke PowerPoints, film clips, on line activities and support via talkaboutalcohol.com and life-stuff.org , as well as real time activities for facilitators to use.

The materials cover information and guidance regarding the safer use of alcohol and will help attendees to develop the resilience and coping strategies to avoid problem drinking. Participants will learn about the mental and physical effects of cannabis, the risks of using it with alcohol and the dangers of escalating use. They will learn how to recognise the signs of dependent drinking and drug use and where to go for help and support.

The workshops are flexible and can be broken down into topics and we recommend delivery, if possible, over at least two sessions – allowing 1.5-2 hours for each.
