Drug-related deaths are up; targeted investment is down. There is so much that we, as a community, can do to reverse this situation.

We know what works and we have the personal stories to prove it. Let’s get the message out that service user involvement is alive and well – and makes a difference.

This year’s event is the ten-year anniversary conference and our chance to demonstrate that each and every life matters.

Our programme covers all areas – new drug treatment, alcohol, mental health, naloxone, outreach, BBVs, detox, prescribing, conquering stigma – and ways that the recovery community can engage those not in treatment.

The ‘Big Discussion’ session will tackle the crucial issues and look at what we need to do about the situation. Come with your thoughts and experiences and contribute to the conference’s message that we will not be passive to the scandal of DRDs.

Take part in a highly engaging ‘conversation café’ to learn from other groups and inspirational individuals, and share ideas and initiatives.

Be part of the vibrant exhibition, showcasing your group or organisation’s activities.

Listen, speak, participate, network, and join the call for action.

It’s the biggest and best one yet. See you in Birmingham!
