Drugs

On this website, we have divided drugs into five groups:

• alcohol
• tobacco
• medicinal drugs
• volatile substances (such as butane gases, glues, aerosols and so on)
• illegal drugs.

You can get more information about each of these by clicking on the word.

It is more important to focus on the legal drugs than on the illegal ones. This is particularly the case in work with children and young people with special educational needs. Young people are more likely to encounter the legal drugs, which cause the most health problems in our society.
