Tasmanians warned of dangers of alcohol on mental health in state-wide campaign
The Foundation of Alcohol Research and Education (FARE) has launched a state-wide campaign warning Tasmanians about how alcohol can impact mental health and wellbeing, via Berlin Creative Bureau.
‘Be Nice to Brain’ shares the latest evidence-based insights on the impacts, including statistics from the National Health and Medical Research Council’s ‘Australian Guidelines to Reduce Health Risks from Drinking Alcohol’.
It is also underpinned by a recent survey of Tasmanians, which revealed one in three are unaware of the link between alcohol and mental health. While almost one in 10 people have seven or more standard drinks on a single occasion, one if four have said they want to reduce their alcohol consumption – rising to one in three for those aged 25-44.
