This alert is specifically for those who use opiates. Please read the following warning and advice: ❗️ There is potentially contaminated heroin in circulation in the Weymouth and Dorchester area. If you use drugs, please take extra care by following the guidance in the poster.

Local adults who are known to be using opiates have been alerted by Reach, about the potentially contaminated supply. They've received safety advice & offered #naloxone, a drug that quickly reverses an opioid overdose. It was administered in all 5 recent near-fatal overdose cases

Sadly, on Friday 12 July, we were made aware of a death and 5 near-fatal overdoses in the Dorchester and Weymouth area. All of those affected had used heroin. It is suspected the heroin may have been contaminated and it is likely it came from a single source.

Our REACH team member Chloe and her friend Kay are going to run the Hardy Half Marathon this Sunday 12th May. 🏃‍♀️ She is raising monies for the HumanKind REACH Recovery fund to support service users who are in recovery. 💛 Donate below.👇 https://t.co/qIr4aG05lB
