‘ Everybody’s just thrown into it ’
‘Why don’t we just build it in a square hole?’
Background In England, the rise in young people/adults’ drug use coincides with a decline in specialist outreach and support services. Current substance use provision particularly neglects young adults. This paper traces the origins of the multi-component ‘1625 Outreach’ model and how it was developed and refined by utilizing community engagement and co-production approaches.Methods The co-produced, qualitative research design included observatio…
They walked in and walked straight out of adult treatment”
Emerging adults aged 18-25 are a diverse group with distinct substance use profiles. Outreach activities are effective for education, harm reduction messaging, and signposting for further support. However, there is a need for the development of bespoke young adult service provision with skilled, specialist staff who can help young adults navigate these transitions without harm
Responding to ‘wicked problems’
The PPO investigations repeatedly recommend reducing supply and improving monitoring and surveillance and the emergency response. There is less focus on prevention and reducing demand or improving the wider environmental context and culture in which the deaths occur. Policy needs to pay more attention to the fundamental issues driving the current deterioration in conditions in prisons
The risk matrix
This article explores the factors contributing to drug‐related deaths in English and Welsh prisons between 2015 and 2020. Based on content analysis of all Prison and Probation Ombudsman ‘other non‐natural’ fatal incident investigation reports, descriptive statistics were generated. Qualitative analysis explored the circumstances surrounding deaths and key risk factors. Most deaths were of men, whose mean age was 39 years. Drug toxicity was the ma…

‘I like money, I like many things’. The relationship between drugs and crime from the perspective of young people in contact with criminal justice systems
Based on research undertaken as part of the EU funded EPPIC project, this paper aims to update and elaborate on the relationship between drug use and offending behaviours by exploring variations within a cross-national sample of drug-experienced young people in touch with criminal justice systems. Adopting a trajectory-based approach, interviews were undertaken with 198 young people aged 15–25 in six European countries (Austria, Denmark, Germany,…
The engagement of young people in drug interventions in coercive contexts
Background The engagement of young people has been a neglected area in youth justice and drug policy and practice. This paper explores the concept of ‘engagement’ in relation to drug interventions in custodial and community settings in different European countries.Methods Interviews were undertaken with young people (aged 14–25 years) in contact with the criminal justice system who use illegal drugs and with practitioners involved in the delivery…
Producing the ‘problem’ of new psychoactive substances (NPS) in English prisons
Framing ‘drug prevention’ for young people in contact with the criminal justice system in England
Drawing on the work of Rein and Schon (1993. “Reframing Policy Discourse.” In The Argumentative Turn in Policy Analysis and Planning, edited by F. Fischer, and J. Forester, 145–166. London: UCL Press., 1996. “Frame-Critical Policy Analysis and Frame-Reflective Policy Practice.” Knowledge and Policy: the International Journal of Knowledge Transfer and Utilization 9 (1): 85–104), we explore the ways in which ‘young people’, ‘vulnerability’, ‘risk’,…

Special educators in inclusive education programmes
Special education teachers are finding themselves in increasingly complex and demanding contexts of practice. Many are considering leaving the field or have already done so. These conditions suggest a decline in the appeal of professional practice as a special education teacher, with potentially deleterious short‐ and long‐term effects on the lives of students with disabilities. Special education teachers identified as highly effective in serving…
What Do We Know About Teacher Leadership? Findings From Two Decades of Scholarship
The concept and practice of teacher leadership have gained momentum in the past two decades. Teachers are assuming more leadership functions at both instructional and organizational levels of practice. Empirical literature reveals numerous small-scale, qualitative studies that describe dimensions of teacher leadership practice, teacher leader characteristics, and conditions that promote and challenge teacher leadership. Less is known about how te…
Drugs, Prisons and Policy-Making
In this fascinating new work, Karen Duke explores the conflicts and contradictory pressures in the development of prison drugs policy in Britain from 1980 to the present. Based on interviews with key
Drugs, prisons, and policy-making
Getting Beyond the 'Official Line
Although the policy network approach has moved to the forefront of the debates around the formulation and development of policy, there is a paucity of methodological and reflexive literature which explores how policy networks and the actors within these arenas are actually studied. Researching powerful individuals within such networks generates a unique set of dilemmas and complexities for the researcher. Drawing on my experiences of researching …
The resettlement experiences of refugees in the UK
This article is based on research commissioned by the Home Office Research and Planning Unit on the settlement of refugees in the UK (Carey‐Wood et al. 1995). The study was the first systematic national assessment of the experiences of non‐quota refugees or those who arrive in the UK before seeking asylum. The research entailed interviews with 263 refugees of different nationalities, resident in various locations throughout Britain. It was carrie…
