Dont take drugs
Use of illegal drugs causes serious problems in our communities.
Drug addiction causes young people to drop out of school, and it makes parents lose interest in their children. It pushes people into lives of crime and poverty, destroys ambition and ruins lives.
Drug dealing brings crime and violence to otherwise peaceful communities, and makes people feel helpless and afraid in their own home towns.People have taken drugs for centuries, with fashion and availability dictating use.
But in recent years, the availability of drugs has become more widespread, particularly with the advent of recreational drugs like ecstasy.
Drug use is thought to have risen by 30% in the last five years.
Use of hard drugs like heroin and cocaine, which are estimated to be used by 2% of the population, is also rising as they become cheaper and more accessible.
Young people in Britain are reported to be taking up to five times more illegal drugs than their European counterparts - particularly ecstasy and amphetamines. As many as one in 12 12-year-olds is said to have taken drugs.
The Standing Conference on Drug Abuse says use of illegal drugs has increased eightfold among 15 year olds in the last 10 years and fivefold among 12 year olds.
Some problems with drugs are caused by the fact that users mix drugs which have different effects or they make take drugs which are cut with other substances.
