Faces and Voices of Recovery Scotland 

YOU KEEP TALKING WE KEEP DYING Gathering 3

We have been accused of slating services, we are not. We are saying services are woefully inadequate.

When talking about our loved one’s deaths we have been accused of showboating & being unprofessional because we have swore, we are not manipulative or unprofessional we are grieving.

We have said the current leadership is woeful, we stand by that, as we have watched what Einstein calls insanity reign for 25 years. The same people making the same mistakes over and over and over again is, unarguably both poor leadership & insanity.

A no blame culture in the addiction field is double speak shorthand for no accountability.

Join us for a day of real conversation & action where you will be heard and have an opportunity to demand accountability.
