Magic Mushrooms have played a part in ancient and contemporary cultures. From priests and shamans, who used them in religious ceremonies and sacred rituals, to 20th Century so-called hippies and ravers, who have enjoyed their psychedelic and psychoactive effects. Today Magic mushrooms  are used by an increasing number of people. Recent medical research has found that their active compounds might even have a role to play in treating anxiety and depression.

In the UK, the first mention of them was in the London Medical and Physical Journal in 1799, which describes a family unwittingly picking magic mushrooms from the banks of the Thames for breakfast - which must have led to some fascinating at-the-table conversation.

In 1958, Albert Hoffman, a Swiss scientist who would go on to invent LSD, discovered and isolated psilocybin and psilocin as the 'active' ingredients of magic mushrooms.

Recreational use of magic mushrooms in the UK appears to have developed in the late 1970s as, at the time, a legal alternative to LSD.

They've recently become popular again after peaking during the rave culture of the 1990s and mid-2000s. According to a recent Home Office report, the number of young people taking magic mushrooms has doubled from 49,00 in 2016/17 to over 100,000 in 2018/19.

But it's not just young people that have been increasingly turning to mushrooms. According to the annual Global Drugs Survey, UK respondents who use magic mushrooms have increased from 13.7 per cent in 2014 to 19.3 per cent in 2019. The same report highlighted that use of other hallucinogens like DMT, ketamine and LSD between 2015 and 2020 had also doubled.

This two-sided A6 picture-based drug card illustrates what magic mushrooms look like, how they make you feel and the potential risks associated with using them.

Amyl nitrites, what we now know as poppers, originated in the 19th century to treat angina because they improve blood flow to the heart by dilating blood vessels.

However, their use evolved and, by the 1960s and 1970s, poppers had found a new life as a recreational drug.

Amyl nitrites as poppers appeal to a broad range of people for their short-lived rush and feelings of euphoria.

Using poppers is not risk-free. They are associated with various short and and long-term health risks.

Written and designed for anyone who wants to know more about poppers, this double-sided, drug awareness picture card delivers essential facts about poppers, their effects, risks and legal status.

Shisha use in the UK

Shisha smoking is on the rise in the UK, especially among young adults, many of whom mistakenly believe that it’s less harmful than cigarettes.

Nearly one in 10 people aged between 18 and 24 have tried it and are often unaware of the scale of the health risks.

Shisha, also known as hookah, hubble-bubble and narghile, is a mixture of fruit-flavoured tobacco and molasses that’s smoked through a water pipe.

Health implications of shisha

Shisha exposes smokers to harmful toxins like carbon monoxide, nicotine, and tar. In a typical session lasting an hour, a shisha smoker will inhale far more smoke than from a cigarette, raising the risk of lung cancer, heart disease, and other complications.

Helping shisha smokers make healthier choice

This simple-to-understand, engaging awareness resource is ideal for shisha smokers and people who need to know more about it.

It contains information on both the immediate and long-term effects of shisha use, including the following:

• Increased heart rate and blood pressure
• Risk of cancer and respiratory diseases
• Danger of second-hand smoke, especially for children
• Risk of infectious diseases like herpes, TB, and hepatitis from shared pipes

This resource is ideal for drug and alcohol services, clinics, smoking cessation programmes, and community health centres.

Inhaling solvents, in the form of glue, first came to the attention of the public in the 1970s and 80s.

More recently inhaling aerosols, butane cigarette lighter refills and other products have become much more common.

These chemicals give off vapours that, when inhaled, affect the brain, and can cause health problems, such as dizziness, nausea, convulsions, cardiac arrhythmia, and even asphyxia.

It is thought that there are likely to be in the region of 57,000 adults in England & Wales who have used glues, solvents, gas or aerosols in the past year.

This double-sided, full- colour postcard uses easy-to-understand language to raise awareness of the health implications of inhaling solvents.
