Fionnuala Sheehan, CEO, drinkaware.ie and Prof Brian MacCraith, DCU President

DCU Students' Union and drinkaware.ie have teamed up to encourage students to 'rethink their drinking', particularly in a home environment, as part of DCU Alcohol Awareness Week 2012. The initiative runs from Monday 27th February and will see the DCU campus host a series of initiatives aimed at challenging student awareness when it comes to responsible drinking.

Professor Brian MacCraith, DCU President has welcomed the partnership between DCU Students' Union and drinkaware.ie, 'This awareness campaign will invite students to reflect on their relationship with alcohol and provide them with the necessary tools to reassess their drinking behaviour. Alcohol misuse and its downstream consequences are a very real concern in today’s society and DCU fully supports the promotion of responsible attitudes towards alcohol consumption.'
