HARM MINIMISATION

Responsible Service of Alcohol
Responsible service of alcohol is vital for legal, health and community reasons.  Our society is now less tolerant of the irresponsible use of alcohol that leads to drunkenness, drink driving and under-age drinking.

We are now far more aware of the serious social problems that are associated with such behavior.

CLUB FORSTER and SPORTIES TUNCURRY (trading as the Forster-Tuncurry Memorial Services Club Ltd.) has adopted the following strategies for the Responsible Service of Alcohol:

HOUSE POLICY -
providing the framework for the responsible service of alcohol.

TRAINING OF STAFF -  
so that they can implement and promote the house policy.

EDUCATION OF PATRONS -
so that they may understand the implications of and abide by the responsible service of alcohol policy.

PREVENTION OF UNDER-AGE DRINKING.

PROMOTING SAFE TRANSPORT OPTIONS.

Responsible Gambling
If gambling is a problem for you, a family member or a friend, someone to talk to is only a phone call away 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. 
Free calls to this number do not appear on your home or work phone bill.
