Join us this International Overdose Awareness Day as we come together to remember those we’ve lost, support those affected, and learn how we can help prevent future overdose deaths.
This year’s theme, “25 Years On. Still Needed.” reminds us that while progress has been made, our work is far from over. Whether you have lived experience, support a loved one, work in health or community services or simply want to learn more, everyone is welcome.
This free community event is open to everyone and will include:
– Information and displays from local Alcohol and Other Drug service providers
– Resources and take-home information
– A live naloxone demonstration, showing how this life-saving medication can help reverse an opioid overdose
– Afternoon tea and the opportunity to connect with local services and community members
Whether you have lived experience, work in the sector, support someone affected by alcohol or other drugs, or simply want to learn more, we welcome you to attend. For more information about International Overdose Awareness day, visit https://www.overdoseday.com/
This event will be held in the meeting room under Nowra Library.
