Having been aware of the concerns that children have consistently expressed about alcohol during Children’s Parliament programmes, projects and consultations, Alcohol Focus Scotland asked Children’s Parliament to further explore the views and experiences of children aged 9-11 years old, looking at the impact that alcohol has on children’s lives and what the vision of a childhood free from alcohol might mean for children.
