Image the booklet and cards along with naloxone kits

To celebrate International Overdose Awareness Day 2023 we have just released an overdose awareness toolkit to raise awareness and educate people on what to do during an opioid overdose situation. This is aimed to be used by people who use drugs, members of the public and professionals who might work with people who take opioids.

The toolkit includes a booklet stacked full of useful information, including:

It also includes credit card-sized cards about how to spot an opioid overdose and how to access naloxone from BDP for people to keep on their person.

All of the information is also available through a brand new page on our website, which can be accessed here – https://www.bdp.org.uk/overdose-awareness-toolkit

This is all timely information as there is a significant rise in opioid overdoses in Bristol and around the country due to the proliferation of synthetic opioids in the drug supply.

To get a physical copy of the kit or for any other queries, please get in touch with us. All of our contact details can be found here – https://www.bdp.org.uk/contact-us/https://www.bdp.org.uk/contact-us/
