cahro limited signs up to the Schools Alcohol Awareness Project

cahro limited has signed up to the national Schools Alcohol Awareness Project, an important education initiative which encourages young people to adopt responsible attitudes towards alcohol. 

As a consultancy which trains many workers in the licensed retail sector, cahro are delighted that the classroom materials distributed free to nominated schools encourage young people to consider the dangers of alcohol misuse and the serious impact it can have on their life.  

Speaking on behalf of cahro, Kyp Edwards said, "Having met Mr McEvoy, the Head Teacher, to discuss the issues surrounding alcohol misuse, we are delighted to offer support to the school in tackling such an important topic.  Of particular importance is the fact that the project materials are highly practical and teacher friendly as staff at the school are already extremely busy."   

The Schools Alcohol Awareness Project is delivered in partnership with teachers but is not a government initiative.  Its success is due to the support of BII members across the UK.  BII is a national charity and the professional body for the licensed retail sector.  With over 15,000 members, it promotes high standards, good employment practice and social responsibility within the industry.

Cathie Smith, Director of BIIAB said, "We are very grateful to cahro limited for this support which allows us to help teachers in a practical way while also raising awareness of the difficult issues surrounding young people and alcohol.

Patrick Gaffney, Director of the Schools Project added his own thanks saying, “We can only make a difference in schools if we gain the support of the wider community.  I am delighted that cahro limited has decided to lend its support.”

At the same time as tackling issues related to alcohol misuse, the Schools Alcohol Awareness Project also helps pupils throughout the country understand the growing importance of the hospitality and leisure industry, and informs them about some of the many career paths the sector offers.
