Local Priorities

We’re working closely with UWE, the Students’ Union, health partners and local support services to reduce drug-related harm and keep students safe. Our focus is on providing clear information, encouraging safer choices, and helping students access support without fear of judgement.

We continue to target those who supply drugs on campus, while ensuring students who may be struggling are offered advice and safeguarding rather than enforcement.
