‘No place for alcohol’ at Junior Cert parties

Drinkaware and Alcohol Action Ireland are advising parents that alcohol should play no part in post-exam celebrations.
“These results are a fantastic achievement and of course, should be celebrated. However we are talking about young people who are about 15 years old. This is simply too young to be drinking alcohol and the harms associated with drinking from such a young age cannot be underestimated,” said Drinkaware CEO, Yvonne Rossiter.
