QAAD

Two years ago, QAAD was given a legacy for the specific purpose of making an alcohol education film for young people. We wanted it to be done in a way that would involve young people and feel relevant to them, so we approached Sibford School to discuss how this could be done within a Quaker ethos.  Lianna Pim, then a Media Studies A Level Student at the school, planned and made a film as part of her studies.

The DVD is 11 minutes long and ranges widely; it is particularly suitable for the 12-17 age range.  It can be used flexibly, either as a prompt for free discussion or in a more structured way. There is session material on the film in the ‘Journeys in the Spirit’ edition on alcohol and drugs, which is available from the Children and young People’s section at Friends House .  More structured material is being prepared for other contexts.   Copies of the DVD are available to interested Friends (click for more details).
