Thank you to Alison Bell @somersetccc.bsky.social for supporting #drugchecking. The more DPHs who support this, the quicker we can achieve universal access to drug checking services across the UK & the quicker we can tackle drug-related death rates.
#drugchecking can be the canary in the coalmine 🔔
It is heartening to hear Directors of Public Health step forward to support #DrugChecking like this.
Drug checking is a pragmatic harm reduction response to contaminated drug markets and drug-related deaths across the UK.

The incidents in Somerset have prompted a call for a debate around the checking of drugs.
