Linking policy, research and practice
I am able to provide consultancy to a diverse range of organisations.
My consultancy/advisory roles have included work with:
- Drug and Alcohol Action Teams e.g. developing strategies for
'Reducing Drug Related Deaths', agreeing prescribing practice
guidelines with commissioners and providers, needs assessment
- The National Treatment Agency, England
- The European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction
- The Joseph Rowntree Foundation
- UNICEF
- The Beckley Foundation
- Forward Thinking on Drugs
- Population Services International
Within any consultancy I am primarily concerned to enable organisations
to draw on best evidence and develop their work in ways that are
likely to deliver concrete benefits to the population or audience
with which it works.
I am as interested in work that addresses the detail of service
provision in a small locality within a DAAT as I am in the the broadest
international perspectives, as I believe that a good appreciation
of micro-level practice and policy strengthens our understanding
of the macro level (and vice versa).
