In line with the launch of our own Strategic Plan – Peer Partnership For Change – this edition is focused on peer partnership, participation and collaboration. A few months ago, we contacted services and task forces around the country, and we asked them how they involved peers and people with lived experience in decision making spaces and service delivery. We are so lucky that we got so many interesting features that represent the importance or peer participation at different levels – from the experience of peer involvement in service provision at the Matt Talbot Community Trust, the importance of peer volunteers to run initiatives at MPOWER as well as the key role that Service User Representatives play at a Task Force level with interviews with Anthony King and Nicholas Diez McKenna just to name a few. We’ve also kept our staple features – Needle Exchange and Harm Reduction Supplies list, Harm Reduction information, Mental Health Supports, Naloxone Training update and more. As promised in the last edition, we also included a feature about our own Strategic Plan – that we launched back in July 2022 – and that will guide for all the work that UISCE will do in the next few years, some updates on the group work and outreach that we have been doing, and more!
