PILL TESTING SAVES LIVES
Not just at music festivals. It can save lives every day if there’s a place to get your drugs checked before you put them in your body.
It works in Canberra. And believe me when I say we are not special in this city.
The people who use drugs to dance all night, or dull chronic pain, or make the mental trauma hurt less, or change their body shape, or relax when they’re too tense, or manage their ADHD that they can’t afford to see a psychiatrist for, are the same in this city as any other city.
But because we have pill testing, they’re less likely to die from a bad batch or unusual purity level.
And because our permanent pill testing service is run by a peer worker NGO, there’s less stigma in asking for drug harm reduction advice when you go in to get your gear tested.
