After our #KnowYourRoute walk, which takes us around all the support services in the town, we will hold a ‘Remembrance and Hope’ rose ceremony in the park, with guest speakers (including the Scottish Drugs Policy Minister – Elena Whitham, a lived experience family member and Scottish Families Affected by Drugs representative).
The event will be family focused to challenge stigma people who have lost a loved one face, and include free food and activities, wellbeing activities for the community/ young people attending to offer hope and provide a non judgemental space to remember their loved one.
We will also include a naloxone training stall, as well as our NHS prevention support services team to provide awareness and education.
