Grateful to see this extensive piece come out of our lobby of parliament. The piece shares stories from our bereaved campaigners and our call for drugs to be treated as a health matter, not a criminal issue 💛 Mail Online Transform Drug Policy Foundation dailymail.co.uk/health/article…

It’s time to make drug policies work for people and communities. Decriminalisation, regulation, and harm reduction are sensible, not reckless choices – it is everything else that has failed: virg.in/URhc The Global Commission on Drug Policy (GCDP)

Great day with Kaleidoscope and Transform Drug Policy Foundation in Brecon having people visit the Overdose Prevention ambulance to see how one could work! Looking forward to our event this evening with fantastic speakers inside the Cathedral.

I kept my 10-year-old daughter at home after she died – the decision changed everything telegraph.co.uk/family/parenti…. What an uplifting account. The contrast between Neve’s and my own daughter’s death from a drug overdose could not be greater. There is stigma attached to drug use.

These doses can kill a young person. Why is Gov willing to let young people die of disobedience? They KNOW lots of them use drugs yet insist they be supplied by criminals & are uncontrolled/unregulated. Thank goodness for The Loop who faces reality & puts life before punishment

🇮🇪 Fantastic that Dublin has *finally* opened its first OPC, after nearly a decade of delays. UK must learn the lessons from Ireland by implementing OPCs but also heed the warning not to get buried in years of delays whilst people die. rte.ie/news/2024/1217…

At last, Britain has a legal drug consumption room – thanks to one man’s civil disobedience Safe consumption rooms mean that at least people are using drugs in a supervised and sanitary environment. Kojo Koram on the courage of Peter Krykant theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The UK imprisons more people than nearly any other country in Europe. Overcrowded, violent, and failing—our prison system is at breaking point. Reforming the Misuse of Drugs Act could cut numbers overnight. Read more: anyoneschild.org/2025/03/one-st…
