Tackling Drugs Changing Lives Awards 2007

Recognising, celebrating and rewarding the unsung heroes who change
lives every day.

Deadline for nominations 17 August 2007.

The Tackling Drugs Changing Lives Awards scheme is now in its second
year and has been set up to reward an individual and a team who have
really made a difference in their local community.

The winners will receive a prize of £10,000 for their project or
organisation to spend on the prevention or treatment of drug misuse.

They are looking for people who go the extra mile every day of the
week - either working in treatment centres, helping to educate young
people about the dangers of drugs or supporting families of service
users.

Anyone can nominate a drug worker and/or team for the awards, whether
they are colleagues, friends, family members or current or ex-service
users. Just complete a nomination - deadline for entries is 17 August
2007.

The winners will be announced at a ceremony in London in November
2007.
