FASD (Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder) is series of birth defects that can occur in babies who were exposed to alcohol whilst in the womb.
A person with FASD can have a variety of problems, ranging from mild to severe. They may have problems with hearing, vision or speech; heart, liver or kidney issues; epilepsy; muscle weakness or immune system problems. They may also have behaviour, speech, memory, learning, attention or sensory disorders.
FASD is the leading preventable birth defect.
By not drinking alcohol at all during pregnancy, you can protect your child from FASD.
'Alcohol: FASD' is available to buy as part of our KS3/4 alcohol leaflets pack and KS3/4 alcohol posters pack. Visit our Literature store to find out more.
