Do you remember when you joined X? It's let me know when #MyXAnniversary is . It's really not a celebration! X allowed me to share some of my personal journey & also read stories from across the world. It is also a platform for bullies and keyboard warriors to create pain.

#IOAD24 - Let's remember without #stigma those who have died & acknowledge the grief of family & friends left behind. Let's remember everyday! Helen Rodgers St Anne's Community Services Forward Leeds #NaloxoneSavesLives #TogetherWeCan Esme Bradley Ruby Mason hayley kirk

Thank you to everyone who attended the International Overdose Awareness Day memorial event in Penny Pocket Park today. A truly moving experience and a useful reminder from our speakers about how we can all work together as a community to save lives. #TogetherWeCan #EndOverdose.

A powerful moment in Penny Pocket Park #Leeds today, as teams and communities from across the city including Forward Leeds, Getting Clean, Simon on the Streets and Leeds Council News, came together to remember those lost to overdose. #togetherwecan #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessDay

Thank you to all those who came to our memorial for #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessDay #IOAD2024 to remember those sadly lost to overdose but also spread the message of hope that if we reduce stigma and act with kindness #togetherwecan do anything 💕 Forward Leeds St Anne's Resource Centre

Why do U think people from South Asian communities choose not to work in the substance use field 🤔 The last 17 years I've worked in drug & alcohol services & met less than 10 working. Why? It was same when i was in addiction. I was the only 'brown' girl on brown! Why?

Addiction, in particular alcoholism can impact anyone. From any background, faith and culture. Any walk of life 😔 There is hope. Come and watch I’m Jit and I’m an alcoholic to see one example of turning your life around 🙏🏽 #ImJit #WeDoRecover #RecoveryMonth #Leicester #Oadby

We will be attending this. It will be interesting to see if part of the findings are that the perpertraers were in addictions/hidden addictions and families enabled their behaviours. 👇🏽

We look forward to welcoming you. In admiration of the much needed work you do 🙏🏽🩵🙂
