Those coming into contact with drug users should be able to identify and respond appropriately to the individuals needs. Users frequently report that it is through having the support of someone who understands that they could talk to, which has helped them get through difficult times. Suitable training can bring about an understanding about drugs which assists in being there for someone in their time of need; effective drugs training can make a difference.

It is worth remembering that most people who use drugs do not come to serious harm, however unfortunately for some who abuse drugs this can lead to problems for themselves and others.

Free access to this United Kingdom drugs training resource has been made possible by financial support of the Kirklees Children and Young People Service.
