Harm Reduction Community Training

Overdoses are preventable and knowing what to do can save lives.

In 2024 Scotland there were 1,017 registered drug-misuse deaths and opioids were implicated in around 80% of those cases.

Our free community training led by Francesco Sportelli who works at Simon Community Scotland where you will learn :

• Harm reduction principles
• How to recognise an opioid overdose
• How to use naloxone safely and confidently

You’ll also receive a naloxone kit to take with you.

No experience needed, just a willingness to keep our community safer.

Optional:
