Tips for writing your letter
- Start with an introduction: Let Chris Minns know who you are and why you’re writing to him.
- Explain why you care and ask for action: Tell Chris Minns why you think he should implement the Synthetic Opioid Preparedness Plan for NSW, you can copy and paste some of the reasons below:
- People right across the state are at risk of overdosing and dying right now. We need pill testing (drug checking) services started across the state immediately.
- Our community is completely underprepared – most people don’t know nitazenes exist, let alone how to avoid them and what to do if someone overdoses. We need a public communication campaign to increase community awareness and our ability to respond.
- We need to expand access to the life-saving overdose reversal medicine naloxone and train first responders on how to deal with severe overdose.
- Sign off: Thank him for his time and encourage him to take action.
