A series of hard-hitting films have been produced to show teenagers the impact that drinking too much alcohol can have. Called A Few Drinks, the films feature the stories of four teens and how their lives were changed forever due to alcohol.
The stories include facts about the chemical and biological effects that alcohol has on your body and research into alcohol-related injuries and deaths. The films were aired on BBC2 last week and are available via BBC Learning. Visit: www.bbc.co.uk/learningzone/clips
More than 90 per cent of secondary school students in England and Wales would like first aid training at school, a study has found. The ICM poll was commissioned by the British Red Cross as part of its Pupil Citizen Lifesaver campaign, launched last week to promote the inclusion of first aid education in school curriculums. The charity is also running a petition asking the government to make first aid education mandatory in all schools. Visit: www.redcross.org.uk/pupilcitizenlifesaver
