LINKS
I’ve totally revamped my links section (to the right-hand side).
Some of these are excellent so to avoid confusion they’re now listed under NINE headings. I’ve done this to avoid the obvious hotchpotch that results from just chucking everything together. State-sponsored organizations such as Partnership for a Drug-free America take a totally different “line” (so to speak) from harm-reduction oriented charities like the UK Lifeline or Vancouver Safer Injecting Project. I’ve also put more academic resources (e.g. Rothschild’s) under their own section.
In case you’ve found this by clicking the topics box and because my links system is notoriously slow, I’m also giving the names and all URLs below, so you can click on them there if that’s easier for you.
If you do know of a good link, please let me know — use the Comment box below. Many thanks. Happy linking!!
