🆕Falkirk's Alcohol & Drug Partnership is hiring 2 new Development Officers. The roles will monitor performance and help implement local & national strategy.
This an excellent opportunity for those with knowledge of alcohol and drug related policy areas.

@AidanAuthor Easy to take on the baggage of others and make it our own. The trick is to call it out and plough your path regardless. Not easy, but rewarding.
@THEJENNYG51@SRConsortium Yeah, I’d like that. Keen to look at alternative interventions and we have a big gap when it comes to digital response. Do you have my email? If not, I’ll DM you.
Today is finally here, can’t wait to see everyone down in Inverclyde today 💜🎉
A big shout out to all the Recovery walks and events happening today from the Shetlands down to Hull, let’s make this day special
@FAVORUK@ShetIslandsCll@NHS_Shetland

Are you, or your organisation, going to respond to the consultation on Scotland's Human Rights Bill? Let's make sure there's a strong response for the drug/alcohol/recovery sector to ensure our voices are heard, and included in this important legislation.

North America's first supervised consumption site in Vancouver will be celebrating its 20th anniversary this September and yours truly will be the MC of this incredible event!
I signed up in 2003. I used the facility over 4000 times, being brought back to life there multiple times.
I went through their detox facility dozens of times and made friendships with staff that I still hold today!
The importance of the facility can't be denied. I wouldn't be alive today without harm reduction and I wouldn't have the life I have today without my recovery which @InsiteVan was vital in helping me achieve. So grateful!! More details to follow soon.
KY8 Community Group/Drop-in Recovery Clinic open tomorrow from 11am - 1pm. Clients can be referred from these sessions into other services such as Addiction Services. Methil Community and Education Centre, Bowling Green Street Methil, KY8 3DH. Auricular acupuncture also provided.
@PeteKrykant_OPC I received the same soundbites in rehab. It was fear that kept me "clean" until I realised that recovery and abstinence aren't mutually exclusive and that recovery has nothing to do with taking substances. A personal view from personal experience.
