13% reduction is not enough. Scotland still faces a public health emergency. These are not numbers. They are somebodys someone. Their lost leaves a gap in families, lives & communities. These deaths are preventable. We need to do more of what we're doing and quicker #StopTheDeaths 💔

The team are sad to hear this news. Naomi was a captivating speaker & her commitment and drive for human rights based harm reduction set the foundations. We need to strive to do more in her memory 😇 😢

'Heroin saved my life' Society thinks that substances are destroying people but for some it's the solution to their problem. Kindness & compassion can start the recovery process #AAW24 #Drugsky

Addiction affects everybody. The stigma within society often makes ppl think that if a person has used substances a long time they will never recover & death is inevitable. Recovery is possible at any stage #AAW24 #Drugsky

Addiction can affect anybody. Any person or service has an ability to support someone to access the support they need. It starts with #Kindness notice the PERSON not the behaviour. Behaviours are communication #AAW24 #Drugsky

Addiction affects everybody. It has a huge impact on families. Family & friends can access support even if their loved one is not in treatment. Family support can empower them to recover their own life & can help their loved one. For support see Scottish Families www.sfad.org.uk
