Substance Use Conference 2026, Surrey County Council

This was a large 2.5 metre banner drawn at the day-long conference.

I learnt a lot at this conference. Not least, that a large percentage of the prison population are neuro-diverse and have either ADHD or some form of autism. As a result they've struggled at school and often been excluded from mainstream education. 

Hopefully the less judgemental we become as a society, the more able people will be able to access the help they need and no longer feel stigmatised and excluded.
