Responsible Drinking Campaigns – YesMore’s Rundown for Mental Health Awareness Week
This Mental Health Awareness Week we’ll be taking a look at some of our favourite responsible drinking campaigns that promote alcohol. The question is, what IS responsible drinking? In this case it’s anything from encouraging you to try more low and no alcoholic drinks to simply taking more pride in your drinking choices. Let’s get […]
Alcohol And Mental Health First Aid Training
Like physical health, we all have mental health, and each are both intertwined. Just as with physical health, poor mental health can affect each of us in very different ways.
