Reducing Drug Harm Partnership

The Reducing Drug Harm Partnership brings together senior leaders and organisations to oversee the implementation of the National Drug Strategy and reduce drug-related harm in Southampton. The national strategy has three priorities:

1. Breaking drug supply chains
2. Delivering a world-class treatment and recovery system
3. Achieving a generational shift in the demand for drugs

In Southampton, we are working together to understand drug harm in our population and implement our delivery plan. We are monitoring our progress on our Reducing Drug Harm Partnership Scorecard which will be updated annually.

If you want help, please contact our free drug and alcohol services.
