UK Drug Warning - Please Read &
Share

Medetomidine, an animal sedative hundreds of times stronger than xylazine, has now been found mixed into ketamine in parts of the UK.
You can't see it, smell it, or know it's there but the risks are serious:

ï»żExtreme sedation
ï»żLoss of consciousness
ï»żSlowed breathing
ï»żNo response to Naloxone
ï»żEffects lasting far longer than ketamine alone

If someone becomes unwell or struggles to breathe:
Call 999 immediately
Put them in the recovery position
Don't wait to see if it gets better

Staying informed keeps people safer.
If you're worried about your own use or someone else's, reach out we're here to help.

The Women's Peer Support Group had a fab time yesterday down at The Recovery Hub on Connaught Road.
Not only had our amazing Volunteer and group facilitator Sarah made an outstanding selection of cakes and mince pies for everyone to enjoy, but there was also the opportunity to join in some Christmas crafts.

Head down to The Grand Palace Wolverhampton , Darlington Street, for an art exhibition of local artists exploring Folklore, mythology, storytelling, and legends as part of this weekend’s Fringe Festival.

The stunning exhibition features work by mattheartist who we are proud to say supports our Tuesday art group at the Recovery Hub.

The exhibition is on until Sunday November 30th, alongside a diverse range of events and exhibitions across the city to showcase Wolverhampton’s incredible cultural landscape.

The Grand Palace is a renovated Methodist church, and the owners have done a beautiful job of preserving its original features.

Now, that’s how you open a festival! Welcome to Wolverhampton Fringe Arts Wolves!

SUIT were out & about in the city last night celebrating culture, creativity, and collaboration. Fringe is now open for a weekend of events and the beginning of an annual creative offer that will shape Wolverhampton’s cultural future.

Developed by Asylum Art Gallery & Studios Ltd, Gatis Community Space , Wolverhampton Today , and Wolverhampton Bid , and supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund with branding by Luke Reader, the festival brings together partners committed to building a stronger cultural identity for the city.

Last night saw an incredible parade led by Kupid through the city centre with lanterns, glowing mushrooms, folk beasts, and performances from Hit The Dhol, Jodi Dancers, Flexus Dance, & Ozara Nigeran folk gods. Kupid performed his powerful spoken word 'Man on the Horse' & students from West Park Primary showcased a communal patchwork banner made in workshops with Gatis community, exploring diverse ancestral cultural stories and themes of 'home'. There was a beautiful and empowering performance from Sterran Dance’s Legacy & Flexus Dance Collective, and the stunning lantern parade was supplied by Gatis Community & productions.

The parade ended in St Peter’s Square with mesmerising light projections by Illuminos. Inside St Peter’s is an art exhibition featuring SUIT & Asylum’s Wayne Taft, which you can visit this weekend. The setting is phenomenal.

Our service offers a unique range of support for people with drug & alcohol problems, and our Punjabi-Speaking staff & volunteers have a mission to reduce barriers in communities where people are directly affected by addiction due to cultural norms, stigma and embarrassment, and where drinking is seen as both traditionally acceptable or forbidden.

Our Cultural Engagement Team have been busy visiting diverse communities in Wolverhampton, with events for International Men’s Day, fibro scans with Recovery Near You at gurdwaras, mosques, and community hubs, delivering health and wellbeing interventions.

We’ve also enjoyed delicious food from Kiran & Sukhwant at our George Street office last week, where they kindly offered food service (langar) for all, encouraging compassion to our vulnerable clients, and for people experiencing hardship they brought clothing, shoes, and other essential items as a show of gratitude & love for our community.

There will be a monthly Peer Support Group starting on Thursday 5th December, 10am–12pm at Rethink's ’s Train Station Hub, providing a safe space to share support & signposting towards issues of mental health, homelessness, recovery, and other related issues.

This space is designed to empower peer mentors by:
Providing a regular check-in space
Sharing insights from what’s happening on the ground
Highlighting education, employment, and training opportunities to cascade to colleagues, friends, and communities

It’s all about connection, learning, and amplifying the voices of those making a difference every day.

If you’re a peer mentor (or know someone who is), we’d love for you to join us and be part of shaping this journey.
