Drugs & Alcohol Awareness for practitioners working with children, young people and families

Join us for an informative online workshop where we'll explore drugs and alcohol. Learn about the latest trends, health implications, and the law, how to support young people in making healthy choices and where to access information and support.

The content will support the delivery of Personal, Social and Helth Education (PSHE) in schools, and is also beneficial for practitioners working with children and families who may be experimenting with drugs and/or alcohol, or are at risk of pressure or influence from peers.
