Pernod Ricard UK (PRUK) has launched the latest phase of its Accept Responsibility campaign focusing on underage drinking.
The latest campaign, announced yesterday (18 February), is part of the company’s ongoing commitment to promote responsible drinking in the UK, which includes tackling the issues of binge drinking and drink driving.
The new initiative is designed to encourage parents to “play an active role” in educating their children on alcohol, and will involve advertising in traditional, online and social media, including the Times, the Telegraph, the Mail on Sunday and News of the World as well as Facebook, Yahoo, Schools Net and ivillage.
The campaign highlights the excuses commonly used by parents to justify underage drinking among their children, such as “we drank when we were that young and we turned out okay” and “it’s only a small glass, my son is very sensible.”
