Caley Stars Meet Safe Celebrations Christmas Tree 

Inverness Caley Thistle Players John Rankin, Dennis Wyness and Markus Paatelainan have met the Highland Drug and Alcohol Action Team (HDAAT) Christmas Tree to help promote safe celebrations during the festive season. The visit to the Tulloch Caledonian Stadium was the latest stop on the tree’s tour as part of Healthy Highland 2007.

Suzy Calder, Substance Misuse Strategy and Implementation Manager (HDAAT), said: “We have to thank the players for helping get  the safe celebration message  out . As the festive season approaches, we know that people are going to be on work nights out and partying more than they usually would.  We are not telling people  NOT  to drink, what we are doing is promoting safe and sensible alcohol consumption – encouraging them to look after themselves and drink responsibly. "

The Tree and members of the Highland Drug and Alcohol Action Team will be touring pubs and clubs in Inverness to spread top tips for having a safe Christmas on Friday 7th December.
