As part of alcohol awareness week we will be contacting all of our alcohol clients to carry out the Pulse survey with them. We need to hear our service user's voice at this difficult time.

A great worker and really lovely human being.

Well done Luci Weir. Working with some of our most disadvantaged clients but always helping to make their lives better.facebook.com/771354826/post…

Canada's Chief Health Officer calls for societal discussion on the decriminalisation of drug use. Her comments follow a similar call by the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. BC & Ontario are currently gripped with an escalating opiate crisis independent.co.uk/news/world/ame…

The willingness to help should be the only requirement for volunteers

Once I have explained the many advantages that providing a DCR has for the wider community and their cost-effectiveness, everybody concludes they would be a good idea. So when can we have some?sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

l am old enough to remember when a Hep C diagnosis was believed to be incurable and nye on a death sentence. Now here at Change Grow Live we are helping our Service Users get tested, treated and rid themselves of the virus. How great must those affected feel?

Today is National Remembrance Day for those who have lost their lives due to drugs and alcohol. 17 of our Service Users died in the last twelve months. Only one of the 17 was older than me. I am 52. We work every day to reduce this figure. All 17 were loved and are missed.

Whispering Death tells it as it is. Brilliant. As a Scottish descendant of Irish immigrants I always failed the Tebbit test. Anyone but England I am afraid. m.facebook.com/story.php?stor…

Some pictures of the preparations we have made for social distancing in the service. Looking forward to welcoming back the lifeblood of our service- our service users.

Today marks the start of #TalkToUs where we highlight and celebrate our 20,000 incredible volunteers who are still here for you 24/7, no matter what. If you’re going through a tough time, you don't have to face it alone 📱 116 123 📧 jo@samaritans.org

I like this. We should always be asking why we do what we do and whose purpose it serves.

@MikeP_cgl This must be a thing! GP phone consultation yesterday re bad knee. He suggested meds and today an advert for opioid meds pops up in my emails! Never had this before.

Today we are holding an online event with MPs on our #HomeForAll campaign calling on the Gov to commit to ensure no-one is left without a safe & secure home as COVID-19 emergency measures ease. We will be live-tweeting throughout so do show your support for #HomeForAll & RT

Please share this drug alert with anyone it could help

Remembrance Day will take place as usual next month – 21 July. Perhaps more poignant than ever given the pandemic. There are likely to be some form of restrictions in place on the usual arrangements this year. Please will you share any ideas/ plans you have to pay respects?

This #MensHealthWeek, why not start a discussion on managing stress and anger? There's some great quiz questions to help start that conversation. Stay tuned for the answers this afternoon.
