Drug Awareness Workshops

Drug Awareness Workshops

Our informative, interactive workshop aim to raise awareness and give young people the tools to make good choices and to help parents have open and honest conversations about recreational drugs. 

As well as drug information/effects/downsides it also features short videos showing real life stories from young people to emergency services and the police and includes an interactive game showing how recreational drug taking can be like Russian roulette. It is finished with Billy’s story an animated, powerful 3-minute video telling what happened the night Billy took MDMA. 

Workshops are available to book free of charge and are suitable for any setting with an audience of 13 years+ with a minimum of 8 people and maximum of 40. The workshops are suitable for both young groups, parent and carers or mixed. 

Workshops for under 13’s are fully funded by us and delivered by the Daniel Spargo – Mabbs Foundation.

The Daniel Spargo-Mabbs Foundation is a drug and alcohol education charity that aims to support young people to make safer choices about drugs and alcohol and reduce harm. We do this through increasing understanding of the effects and risks, and helping to develop life skills and resilience. We work with young people, families, teachers and professionals in schools, colleges and community groups, delivering our unique evidence-based, multi-component drug and alcohol education programme.

The Foundation was set up in January 2014 by Tim and Fiona Spargo-Mabbs in response to the death of their 16-year-old son Daniel having taken ecstasy.
