Harm reduction
Harm reduction advice

Harm reduction may be seen as an integral part of recovery. In Wales, recovery from problematic drug or alcohol use is defined as a process that enables an individual to make changes which improve their quality of life. The Welsh Government substance misuse strategy outlines the process and goal of recovery as “enabling, encouraging and supporting substance misusers to reduce the harm they are causing to themselves, their families and communities, and ultimately return to and maintain a life free of alcohol or drug dependency”.
