Is this study a missed opportunity to spend research funds wisely? Few participants re-engaged, many continued to inject, despite £ incentive. Given the large number of users in Glasgow, participant uptake was poor. One wonders whom is the more desperate; the drug user or the researcher??

Surprised and delighted to enjoy a quality jazz playlist while my wife shopped in Rogersons Shoes, Ayr, Scotland. Kurt Ellington. Kenny Burrell. Miles Davis among the luminaries. Nice!

This is worth looking at - our NHS in crisis and not valuing their amazing staff resource substack.com/@jujuliagrac...

I have one simple question for the ultra-wealthy: What are you waiting for? With the scale of inequality and enormous needs and crises around the world, it's time for all @forbes.com #ForbesBillionaires to join the Giving Pledge. My Daily Express op-ed: bit.ly/3EjB0km

“He was sent to Addiewell on remand, was there for almost a year, and when he came home to me it was in a box.” Jordan Burns’ mother says the prison served her son a death sentence. She’s calling for accountability — and change. theferret.scot/addie...

Absolutely…..

Homelessness isn’t black & white. People become homeless for many reasons—escaping violence, eviction, or leaving care or prison. It’s complex, & every story is unique. At Blue Triangle we provide safety, support, & a fresh start. Let’s challenge misconceptions and break the stigma. #BlueTriangle50

The call for abstracts for our Annual Conference will close tomorrow!

Such a privilege for me to be involved in the development and clinical research around this unique monotherapy Neuromodulation device for the treatment of substance use disorder.

"WHY DO BILLIONAIRES WORK?" Tweeter @lowerformofwit seems to think people only work for money. I can't speak for all "f*cking freaks", but that absolutely doesn't apply to me. 👉 Does it apply to you? Why do you work? #meantweets #billionaires

1 in 3 people affected by a brain tumour depend on benefits for most or all of their household income. However, many people aren't aware of the financial support they could be eligible for. That's why we're launching our new benefits checker tool: www.thebraintumourcharity.org/living-with-...

Good to see this collaborative initiative emerge, led by Public Health Scotland. Health inequality is unacceptable and contributes to avoidable early deaths, breakdown of family & community, and erodes hope. I have hope that this is more than good intention by PHS.

The blues - timeless; especially in the hands of great exponent like Peter Martin on Open Studio. A great forum for aspiring jazz musicians.

As a muso learning to play piano expressively & freely, I marvel at Scotland’s jazz talent: world-class musicians, tutors and composers, even a jazz conservatoire. Take time to celebrate this; nurture it. Keep music live. #jazz #JazzScotland #CreativeScotland #JazzFestival
