Overdose Awareness Day offers time for bereaved families to remember loved ones

Renfrewshire residents will come together today to remember those who have died or have suffered permanent injuries due to a drug overdose.

Observed on August 31 every year, International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD) seeks to create better understanding of overdose, reduce the stigma of drug-related deaths, and create change that reduces the harms associated with drug use.

Renfrewshire Alcohol and Drug Partnership (ADP) is committed to continuing to work collaboratively to prevent and reduce alcohol and drugs harms within communities.
