This week I read an interesting blog post by Toby Seddon entitled ‘The politics of recovery’. The article draws the comparison between previous crime reduction and harm reduction strategies that have now given way to a more recovery orientated agenda in formulating modern drug policy. The tone of this piece is one of scepticism outlining that continuity is often king, and that recent policies have much in common with their predecessors on a strategic level. So where does this leave the implementation of a recovery agenda on the front line, and more importantly in our local communities?
