personally and pursue further education for
career development.

share their experiences with BME groups about drugs misuse.
-
Famlies
and community members gained knowledge and understanding about substance
misuse issues and how to deal with the challenging issues they face.

Networking
and partnership working has
provided stronger ties and understanding of the BME
Communities needs and aspirations.
