Today is International Overdose Awareness Day, a time to remember those who have lost their lives to overdose and to raise awareness of the steps we can take to prevent future deaths.

We have two questions for you: would you recognise the signs of an opioid overdose, and would you hit share on this post to help spread awareness?

We're sharing the key signs of an opioid overdose to help raise awareness and provide information that could save a life.

Please help us spread this important message by sharing this post with friends, family, colleagues, and local community groups and pages. Together, we can increase awareness and help save lives.

💜 Every message matters.
Ahead of International Overdose Awareness Day, we're collecting anonymous messages throughout August to honour lives lost, raise awareness and help prevent future overdoses.

Whether your message is one of remembrance, hope or support, it will become part of a national virtual display shared on International Overdose Awareness Day.

💜 Today, our staff are wearing purple to mark International Overdose Awareness Day, which takes place on Monday 31 August.

By wearing purple, we honour those whose lives have been lost to overdose, support families and communities affected by overdose, and help raise awareness of the importance of prevention and reducing harm.

Heard of Lean, but not quite sure what it is?

Whether you're a young person hearing about it from friends or online, or a parent/carer wanting to better understand the risks, it's important to know the facts.

Lean (sometimes called "Purple Drank" or "Sizzurp") is a drink that can contain cough medicine mixed with soft drinks and sweets.

Good luck to everyone receiving their GCSE results today!

You've worked incredibly hard to reach this moment, so whatever your results, take a moment to recognise just how far you've come.

Whether you're celebrating your achievements, considering your next steps, or feeling uncertain about what comes next, remember that your results do not define your worth or your potential.
Be proud of the effort you've put in and the resilience you've shown along the way.

Wishing you every success and happiness for the future. 🌟

🎉 Did you get your results today?

Whether you got the grades you were hoping for or things haven't gone to plan, remember that one set of results doesn't determine your future.

Today can bring lots of emotions. If you're celebrating, stay safe. If you're struggling, talk to someone you trust and don't feel like you have to cope on your own.

Whatever you're feeling today, try not to rely on alcohol or drugs to manage those emotions.

If you need support with your drug or alcohol use, reach out, we are ready when you are-

And remember...
💙 Be proud of the effort you've put in to get here.
