The ‘Fact Monkey’ campaign promotes responsible drinking. It is headed by a monkey.

Beer mats with the Fact Monkey on the front are distributed in campus bars and have drinking-related statistics, specific to the University of York, on the back. These have included, for example, "4 out of 5 university of York students stay safe by making sure their drinks are never left unattended" or "9 out of 10 University of York students have never underachieved on a piece of work or exam as a result of alcohol use".
