OVERDOSE = DEATH. It can happen.

Prescription Drugs. Party Drugs. Overdose. It can and does happen.

Hide and Seek co-host Dean Beck reveals he recently discovered his flatmate dead, believed to be due to an accidental overdose of prescription medications.

Together with co-host Tim Little, Dean chats to Harm Reduction Victoria’s President Bill O’Loughlin about the life saving work his organisation undertakes.

VAC’s new website resource for LGBTIQ people has been received with universal praise. Combining mental health, drug information and sexual health, Touchbase is based on harm reduction principles.

Check out HRV President Bill O’Loughlin’s article in the Guardian (7.12.2015) entitled ‘The National Ice Action plan is a setback to all that has been achieved in Drug Policy”. Bill’s critique provoked some serious discussions about the new plan, with comments about the article furiously posted all day. This onslaught of discussion caused the piece to be on the front page of the Guardian website for most of the afternoon.
