Social care charity Turning Point Scotland said the “internationally proven model” would save lives. Patricia Tracey, head of alcohol and other drugs at the charity, said: “We will continue to call for improved harm reduction and recovery support for people who use drugs to reduce harm, prevent avoidable deaths and live fulfilling lives. Safer consumption facilities are an internationally proven model and can provide a vital service for people who face stigma and barriers to support, offering safety, dignity and an important pathway into treatment and recovery services.”
