This moving production provided a vital opportunity for students to engage with the real-life story of Daniel Spargo-Mabbs, sparking essential, honest conversations about risk and personal safety about drugs.

Key takeaways for parents:

• Open dialogue: the performance serves as a powerful 'talking point' to help you start open, non-judgmental conversations at home about peer pressure and substance use.

• Understanding risk: Students learned that the risks associated with drugs are often hidden and that even a single decision can have life-altering consequences for an entire community.

• Empowerment and agency: the workshop focused on 'informed decision-making', giving students practical strategies to resist pressure and keep themselves and their friends safe in challenging situations.
