Over a decade ago, Sharon and Dave were both addicted to class A drugs. Now both lead abstinence-based recovery communities on a shoestring in Dundee with a success rate miles beyond service-based intervention. Is anyone actually listening? @RecoveryDundee @ReconnectionProje

Talking about belonging and connection can mean different things to different people. For me, the beginning is to understand that we are all connected. We're not good at understanding that. Imagine if services understood that.... imagine.

When it comes to the #DrugDeathCrisis it must be noted that people in recovery are marathon runners ... They know how to go the distance in the service of others, they won’t just go away or be quite while people die needlessly. @lokiscottishrap @Annemarieward @Jardine_SRC

Drug deaths are rising but Scots in some areas are still being told they’ll need to wait months for treatment. Peer mentors working with @traceyclusker’s Midlothian service (with immediate access) told me for @SunScotNational that is unacceptable. thenational.scot/news/182722…

Addicts have to wait up to three months for treatment due to 'wrong postcode'

THE lives of people battling with addiction issues are still being put at risk because they are being told they will have to wait for weeks or even months to get medication and therapy, and being...

Am slightly struggling to follow the logic at today's #UKDrugSummit as big focus on drugs through the lens of crime, justice and enforcement, but @DameCarolBlack also reflects prison "is not a place of recovery" with easy access to drugs and poor access to treatment. Correct!

Why do we need a Test of Change around @policescotland carrying #naloxone? @KeithNHumphreys says in W. Virginia police have reversed 3000+ overdoses since 2018. Also helped build better relationships in communities. #UKDrugsSummit #FollowTheEvidence @scotpolicefed
