For many years The Scotch Whisky Association
and individual whisky companies have sponsored research aimed
at discovering why it is that there are those who seem unable to
control their drinking. It also sponsors educational programmes
based on such research and targeted at those thought to be most
at risk of misusing alcohol, for example young people and drivers
who drink as well as at doctors. nurses and social workers,
because they are in the best position to help the problem drinker.
