Overdose Awareness Day 2025
Today we joined services from across Leeds at Penny Pocket Park to raise awareness on overdose and to challenge the stigma of addiction. We remembered those that we have lost along the way and united in our mission to beat addiction and end overdose

Passing a crime that had been committed. Made me think about the impact to those living in the area and the frustration & fear that must be felt.
Understanding the deep rooted issues within society helps to form a strategy for moving forward.

We get regular visitors to our Getting Clean Wildflower Meadows citywide people who wouldn't normally speak to each other stop and talk beside our Sunflowers. I guess that you could call it community building
