Drug Related Deaths Area events 2022

DRD Area events 2022

After two years of online Drug Related Deaths annual conferences, we decided to bring our partners together again for in-person events in December 2022.

These took the form of two area events, for Cheshire and Merseyside on Friday 9th December, and Greater Manchester on Wednesday 14th December. These in-person events brought together commissioners, treatment providers, and other services from each area, and are accompanied by our online Drug Related Deaths conference in early 2023.

The area events included presentations from invited speakers, as well as a summary of current data for the area, and presentations from all service providers. The presentations from these events are available below.
