The "It's Your Choice" project is a partnership approach funded by the National Lottery which works with local schools to look at substance misuse awareness. The events are held in the Cambuslang Institute which allows the young people to mix with pupils from different schools in a more informal environment. All primary and secondary schools within Cambuslang and Rutherglen are involved with all Primary 6 and Secondary 1 pupils attending the events. The Primary 7 pupils receive story books and work books for use in the classroom and / or at home.

The events incorporate a number of activity-based workshops which teach the pupils about alcohol awareness, drugs awareness, smoking and tobacco awareness, and health impacts. The events are run by Cambuslang and Rutherglen Community Health Initiative (Alcohol Prevention and Education), Strathclyde Police and NHS Lanarkshire.
