Syringe Exchange/Methadone Services: Crystal Palace Rd

[Maurice]

My (limited) understanding was:

a) BARA objected due to lack of consultation

b) If approved, the pharmacy COULD introduce the programme down the line without further consultation, even if there is no plan to do so at present.

Have I gotten this wrong amid so much flying about?

[macroban]

One of the things that remains unclear to me is who wrote the text of the petition.

Was it BARA?

Does anyone know?

[ChavWivaLawDegree]

I'd lovr to know who actually started all this.

[Keef]

Knowing this forum, there will be a long thread in a few months time stating just how much the area needs a 24 hour syringe exchange!

I've not seen the petition, what's the gist/choice quotes?

[Quaywe]

There was a guy on Northcross Road on Saturday with a petition for this. He had a table set up outside the Chemist there. Nice bloke and explained himself well. Maybe it was him? Maybe he's just got the wrong end of the stick as well and it wasting all of this campaigning time on something that was never going to happen.

Anyone fancy signing a petition FOR a needle exchange, now that this has been raised ?

lets shake up the multitude of greedy pharamcists that dominate the area

haha good point

I like the sentiment snorky but petitions are useless.

The tend to be exercises in helping the disenfranchised to feel engaged. Unlike the angry mob locals, people on the receiving end of petitions normally understand that it is possible to have a range of views on any given subject, that's why they're appointed to make decisions. That's not to say it's a good thing that petitions are ignored, just that they are.

I must admit I d rather junkies were exchanging needles at a Doctors Premises rather than in the Park or

some anonymous house. Maybe we SHOULD have a Needle Exchange.

It would have been so much better if Admin had merely deleted the childish postings.

[Mark]

Could you go through the 13 pages of postings and point out which ones they are please?

[macroban]

Feeble response for allowing a serious thread to be hijacked.

[Mark]
