Vulnerable Lives at Risk as Services Close | Glasgow News
Description
Vital addiction and mental health services in Scotland are on the brink, with key charities like Turning Point Scotland set to lose critical Glasgow programs amid unstable funding. As residential stabilization units shut down and crisis services get absorbed by local authorities, activists warn of devastating consequences—especially for women navigating addiction, trauma, and homelessness. Despite the Scottish Government’s ambitious ten-year plan to slash drug deaths, frontline workers question whether promises translate into secure support. With specialist help vanishing, campaigners demand urgent, coordinated action to protect lives before more services disappear entirely.
