Inverclyde ADP this week also took part in a round the table discussion with @ScotGovFM & Drugs and Alcohol Minister, Christina McKelvie on forward approaches to address drug deaths in Scotland. Locally we will continue to work together to tackle drug deaths & support families.
First Minister @HumzaYousaf and Drugs and Alcohol Policy Minister Christina McKelvie visited The Bothy to hear how they support people with problematic substance use. He reaffirmed our commitment to work with partners and those with lived experience to tackle substance misuse.
