Current levels and patterns of alcohol drinking continue to cause concern, particularly amongst young females. Effective interventions remain elusive. The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of knowledge relating to UK 'Sensible Drinking' guidelines, definitions of binge drinking and attitude to drink labelling initiatives amongst female school leavers enrolling at university.
