Here's a preview for those of you not yet convinced to go and have a look at the full report available on our website.
There are 3 key sections of the report overviewing trends, the drug-related deaths and a call to action. The drug trend sections highlights work at Crew, in Scotland, UK and across Europe. Section 2 overviews the latest available information on drug-relayted deaths in Scotland. Section 3 highlights work being done by other services and organisations, as well as recommendations going forward.
