We’d love to see chapters & members to submit to this - the @Release_drugs & @TransformDrugs guide is really useful!

[Release Drugs - @releasedrugs.bsky.social @Release_drugs]

The UK Home Office is set to increase harms for people who use drugs.

However, they're consulting the public to get people's opinions on their proposals.

We have an opportunity to change things, and we need your help 🧡

This is what you can do... 🧵
