Hi AusDD Bluelighters. Some of you may be interested in attending this event 
In 2015, Unharm teamed up with Melbourne mother Adriana Buccianti to launch a petition for pill testing. To date, more than 35,000 people have got behind it.
There’s been a huge swell of support for pill testing here in Australia over the past year. Unharm has made it easy for people to show that support, by emailing their MP about pill testing through the Tests not arrests campaign page.
Some of the feedback that’s come back from parliamentarians is a need for more clarity about the practicalities of implementing pill testing services. To help with that, we’re holding a campaign launch in Melbourne that aims to answer those questions.
Please come along. It’s at The Wheeler Centre, 6pm Friday November 25.
Hear from international experts who are running pill testing services right now. Professor Fiona Measham (The Loop, UK) and Helena Valente (CheckIn, Portugal) will join us over Skype, to tell us about how their services operate and how they made it all happen.
We’ll also be joined by local experts including Dr Monica Barratt, to talk about how pill testing could operate here in Australia. That's right, you can meet Tronica in person!
We’ll have a special guest called Bruker Alpha. He's the kind of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer that’s being used by The Loop for pill testing in the UK. You will be able to walk around a model pill testing service, see a demonstration of the Bruker Alpha, and get your questions answered.
We'll also be joined of course by Adriana Buccianti, our courageous collaborator in this campaign. Watch the new video where she explains why she supports pill testing, here.
