We're excited to announce the launch of our new research project in collaboration with @drkarenzamoore.bsky.social from Newcastle University & @crew2000.bsky.social! 🏴
We're looking for Scotland-based young people aged 16–30 who take #benzos to share your stories with us: brp.org.uk/ShareYourStory
brp.org.uk
Get involved in BRP's new research project aiming to understand how we keep each other safe.
Some disclaimers:
📍The locations were mapped based on the postcode district (e.g. EC1) displayed on WEDINOS results page (i.e., not where someone lives!)
💡Hotspots may not = more nitazenes in circulation — more samples may be submitted where local organisations support testing
This map is a tool intended to provide a digestible visualisation of nitazene detections by location. All data is owned by WEDINOS, and intended as an educational/informational tool only📘
You can zoom in, and click on individual dots to see sample details (see image above)
📠*Samples from the majority of 12/24 were not included, due to WEDINOS’s technical issues
We encourage people to get their stuff tested, stick with friends, carry #naloxone, and #StartLowTakeItSlow 💙 #harmreduction
More info, including printable posters, is available on our website: brp.org.uk/research ⚡️

🗺️ We have launched an interactive map showing nitazene detections by WEDINOS #drugchecking across all of 2024*
The vast majority of the 144 samples containing a #nitazene were missold, and over half were intended as a #benzo
