About this Event
Drug and Alcohol Awareness
Join us for a short, interactive session focused on drug and alcohol awareness.
This session explores how substances can affect people, ways to reduce harm, how to recognise when someone may need extra support, and what Change Grow Live (CGL) Birmingham offers.
We’ll explore:
- Signs someone may be experiencing difficulties
- Drug families, effects and examples
- Nitazenes – what they are and why they matter
- Physical health impacts
- Alcohol – understanding its effects
- Emerging drug trends
- Who Change Grow Live are and the support we offer in Birmingham
This session isn’t designed to train you to become a substance use specialist. Instead, it aims to share up-to-date information, build confidence, and support you in having informed, compassionate conversations with people who may be experiencing substance-related harm.
If you work with people who may be affected by drug or alcohol use, follow our Eventbrite page for upcoming free courses, lunch & learns, and webinars.
We will also be covering naloxone (overdose awareness) training, with kits provided.
This course is for health and social care workers, volunteers, or professionals working in Birmingham only. If you’re outside Birmingham, please contact your local services for training.
