Pill Testing Forum

Health, Podcast, Society & Culture

Dr Steve McNally is Deputy CEO at Penington Institute @PeningtonNews, who are hosting a forum for and against pill testing. Pill testing is a sensible thing to do. Evidence is important but this an emotive area. Around 20 people die of pill overdoses, which is a smaller number compared with other drugs & alcohol. But pill taking people don’t know what they are taking.
