Moving On Inverclyde

Today we are hosting #Naloxone Training for Trainers delivered by Inverclyde ADP Harm Reduction Lead Lesley Bon and Mariebeth Kilbride from Scottish Drugs Forum. 12 new people able to train Inverclyde services and their community to administer life saving medication following an #overdose. #StopTheDeaths

Last week saw the conclusion of our first course delivered in partnership with Morton in the Community. 10 participants completed 5 weeks focusing on personal development and the relationship between substance use and mental health. This awareness course also trained those attending on how to use #naloxone, an invaluable tool to help save a life from #overdose.
