A new addition to my glove box today. Picked it up at my Dr’s office. It doesn’t matter if you don’t use drugs. It doesn’t matter if you don’t think you know anybody that does. You may find yourself in a situation where you could save someone’s life. We should all carry Naloxone.
Did you know we offer support for Family and Friends of loved ones struggling with addiction. We offer a number of Family and Friends meetings across the UK including our latest one in Westminster

#keepcalm and #chooserecovery. Celebrating recovery in South Tyneside followed by a dip in the sea and ice from #minchellas. Sad 😔 to leave Shields but I went out with a bang.
Injecting drugs is made dangerous by prohibition
Prohibition means people
- hide/hurry when injecting
- inject in isolated places
- inject unknown contaminated drugs
- inject unknown strength of drugs
- stigmatised & shunned
- reluctant to seek help
- unable to get naloxone/HAT
Hi. We have a surplus of tea & coffee in our head office that is due to go out of date within the next 6 months. I’d like to offer it to any shelters, social enterprises or any other charitable organisations that could use it.
Please DM me if you know of anywhere.
