Great to see Jim nominated for this award, recognising his hard work and innovation in the harm reduction field over three decades. I was lucky enough to spend a year with his team when doing my PhD. edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/people/ed…

Nice little mention for The Salvation Army in Change Grow Live's #naloxone strategy. Excited to be working together on this - rolling out provision in all our lifehouses (hostels) in England and Wales. Going well so far! #harmreduction @TSAHomelessSvs changegrowlive.org/about-us/news-…

“There is no medicine like hope, no incentive so great, and no tonic so powerful as expectation of something tomorrow.” Orison Swett Marden

The Salvation Army report, “Homelessness in Scotland” and freedom of information data provided by local authorities show large numbers of people stuck in temporary accommodation, with little support, is a major problem

It's a cool morning at The Hayes Conference Centre. All set for day 2 of The Salvation Army Homelessness Services conference 2022. It's good to be sharing with others from across the UK and Ireland for the first time in 2 years! #HSUConference #Homelessness

Learning lots from Prof Mandy Davis of Trauma Informed Oregon about #trauma informed care at our @TSAHomelessSvs #homelessness conference. Loved this slide. Something we can recognise and respond to today at home and at work.
