drug deaths just keep rising in Scotland.

The unofficial overdose prevention pilot run by @PeteKrykant_OPC and volunteers in Glasgow saved 8 lives.
The entire Government has managed to reduce drug deaths nationally by just 9 in the last year.
We know what works. What we lack is the political will to put it into action.

Almost 2 years in the making, our new website is now live!
#MedTwitter
does anyone remember who made or what the name is of the (web?)app someone made that helps you track what topics you've revised? It was kinda like a calendar and used a system similar to anki to remind you when to have another look at the topic

Following @PeteKrykant_OPC’s safe drug consumption van recently receiving its first official funding, conversations with Peter and @DrugsAndArthur show how far the van has come but also how much more still needs to be done to better tackle drug use in Scotland
As Glasgow's Safe Drug Van receives its first official funding, Lucy Dunn looks back on interviews with van founder, @PeteKrykant_OPC.
