When communities can create their own solutions, they're more effective. We've seen this in action in New Zealand with the world-first needle exchange programme, started in the 1980s by a community of people who inject drugs.

On Saturday it was our 2-year anniversary of drug checking being made permanently legal 🥳🥳🥳 What does this mean for you? It means that if you give us drugs to check, it's not supply. And if we accept drugs from you, it's not possession.
