Free first use images SHAKING UP THE ALCOHOL DEBATE IN SCOTLAND Drink Wise, Age Well is a National Lottery funded programme that helps people aged 50 plus to make healthier choices about alcohol. It’s no secret that Scotland has one of the worst records for alcohol-harm in western Europe and it is hoped that the festival will shake up the alcohol debate, providing people with alternatives to alcohol – both in terms of drinks and social settings. Club Soda is working to create a world where nobody has to feel out of place if they are not drinking. It has been recognised for this pioneering approach by the Carnegie Trust among others.
