We all want the Mornington Peninsula to be a community where everyone is supported to be happy and well, and our community spaces are safe and inclusive for all. Our children and young people deserve to be healthy and free from harmful influences as they grow up.
Mornington Peninsula has many wineries, restaurants and other businesses selling alcohol that contribute to our local culture, tourism and economy.
However, alcohol can cause serious harms, which affect everyone in our community. It can fuel violence on the street and in homes, and can cause accidents, injuries and deaths. Alcohol can also cause long-term health problems, like heart disease, cancer and poor mental health.
Alcohol can have negative impacts on residents and the community, leading to noise, waste and property damage, and making our neighbourhoods feel less safe.
We are asking the community to share their experience and local knowledge about alcohol related harm in the Mornington Peninsula. The survey responses will help inform the development of an Alcohol Harm Prevention Policy that:
Reflects community needs and experience
Includes effective actions to reduce harm from alcohol
Supports harm from alcohol as a criteria when it comes to planning applications for liquor licenses.
Your input is appreciated, and you have the opportunity to go into a draw to win your choice of one of the 3 x $100 gift vouchers (Ritchies IGA supermarket or Peninsula Cinemas).
