The underhanded tactics of the alochol industry to influence policy can often go unnoticed, as described by one of our 2018 Top Spin Winners: topspinvic.com.au/entries/story/…
Health advocates are warning the National Alcohol Strategy has been compromised by meddling from the alcohol industry: abc.net.au/news/2019-07-2….
A huge thank you to everyone who entered Top Spin 2019! We had over 200 entries from young people across the state which called out the sneaky alcohol industry tactics that try and get more people drinking. See them all here topspinvic.com.au/entries
It’s time to announce our final round of winners! Congrats to Judges Award winner Markos Hasiotis and our three shout out winners Joshua Mckay, Maria Nguyen and Victoria Trovarelli. Read more about these winners here: topspinvic.com.au/news/final-top…
Before sitting down to catch up on the latest from Westeros, make sure you check out our awesome entries topspinvic.com.au/entries/story/…
While happy hours, bottomless brunches and alcohol advertising encouraging more Victorians to get out and drink alcohol, #AlcPol2019 shows that a whopping 85% actually think clubs, pubs and bars should close at 3am or earlier. Thoughts? @FAREAustralia
We love this entry from Nasteleko who is calling out the festival system which requires music lovers to put money on a card that is non-refundable and is only used to buy alcoholic products. Learn more: topspinvic.com.au/entries/story/…
Any other SIM fans out there? We had major flashbacks thanks to this recent @_TheTopSpin entry which posed the question ‘is the alcohol industry controlling you?”
On your way to a gig? In between sets take a look to see how many alcohol products you can see advertised in your venues, the number may surprise you!
A recent @FAREAustralia survey said 80% of Aussies think there are places where outdoor alcohol advertising should be banned. Do you agree? Have your say on advertising tactics by submitting a @_TheTopSpin entry today!
We've interviewed our latest two Judges’ Prize winners' Riley van Ingen and Felix Barnett to hear how they took out how they created their top scoring entries: topspinvic.com.au/news/meet-more…
Aggy cares about the influence of alcohol on young people. That's why she became a co-designer and judge for VicHealth's @_TheTopSpin competition. Get involved in calling out the sneaky tactics of the alcohol industry. Entries close 12 May. yacvic.org.au/blog/top-spin-…
More alcohol means more profits for the alcohol industry and they spend millions encouraging people to drink, particularly young people. @_TheTopSpin wants to stamp out his harmful habit and encourage young people to learn the facts. Find out more: Link topspinvic.com.au/entries/
Our latest Top Spin 2019 winners aren’t blurring lines or wearing beer googles when it comes to pointing out the sneaky advertising tactics used by alcohol companies. Congrats Riley van Ingen, Tanya Loucas, Jessica Katzen and Jesse Bucher topspinvic.com.au/news/more-top-…
Share what doesn’t sit right with you by calling out the tactics and the spin being peddled by the alcohol industry. Entries can be submitted by text, image or a short video – find out more: topspinvic.com.au
What are your thoughts on the latest marketing tactic from the alcohol industry for zero alcohol booze that looks and tastes like alcohol? Is this normalising alcohol consumption and grooming the next gen of drinkers?
Anger Over Beer Ad: Even though it looks and tastes like beer, Carlton Zero is legally available to children, raising concerns it will encourage underage drinking. #7NEWS
It’s scary to think much of the alcohol industry’s huge advertising and sponsorship budgets are spent in and around sport. In fact, there were 118 alcohol ads played during the 2018 AFL Grand Final! #TheTopSpin
Is booze advertising sneaking into the things you love? Share your ideas and you could win $1,000. Find out more: topspinvic.com.au/entries/
Are alcohol companies sliding into your Instagram feed through ads and influencers? This isn’t a coincidence. It’s time to call them out – find out more: topspinvic.com.au
