Underage drinking is a big problem in the United Kingdom in the new millennium, the introduction of Alco pops in the late nineties opened the flood gates for teenagers to experiment with alcohol and enjoy it, rather than gulp down slugs of spirits which the under developed pallet is unaccustomed to and not ready for. Alco pops is the choice of teenagers as it is just like drinking a regular fizzy drink like Lilt or lemonade, the kids can drink more and in turn get more and more plastered and this inevitably leads to anti social behaviour.
The UK has the worst underage drinking problems in Europe and some of the worst pregnancy and delinquency statistics, it is no coincidence so it is something we need to work together on in order to stop.
If you run a licensed premises, and hold a license to sell intoxicating spirits you will know that the legal age in the UK for buying alcohol is eighteen and selling to a minor could cost you your license. Obviously we know that no one would knowingly sell alcohol to a minor but some will always do their best to slip through the net.
In order to cull underage drinking the government have set out some guidelines which if followed can help to cut out underage alcohol purchase, details of which you can find on this website or any related government website.
