GLS serves up genital warts and pints of vomit in appetising
new campaign for Lancashire Drug and, Alcohol Action Team.
Grisdale Lesniak Swann has added significantly to the flavour
of a night out in the North West with a campaign warning of the dangers
of over-indulgence.
A series of 48 and 6-sheet posters feature young people on a night
out ordering the dire consequences of alcoholic excess: from a breathalyser
and a 12-month ban to unprotected sex and genital warts.
While 6-sheets in urinals and ladies’ loos feature lip-smacking
glasses of regurgitated lager, carrot and stomach lining accompanied
by the line: ‘What will you be ordering this weekend?’
The campaign is designed to coincide with a government initiative
to persuade young people to take water or soft drinks between their
alcoholic drinks.
GLS Managing Director Alex Swann commented: ‘Research indicated
that the only way to get through to problem drinkers was to bring
them up short with a shocking, thought provoking image. I haven’t
touched a drop myself since I saw the vomit execution!’
The campaign rolls out around the North West region throughout May
and June.
