Join us as we take action to change our failed drug laws
We will be taking action in Parliament on 27th June, 2023 to show the public and politicians that we stand for better drug laws. To achieve change, we need you there.
This day is for people who know that drug use is a health issue, not a criminal one. If you’re ready to take action and support a global movement calling for reform of our failed drug laws, then please join us for our 7th annual lobby.
The mass lobby is part of the Support Don’t Punish Global Day of Action which is recognised each year in over 100 countries as individuals come together to call for drug policies that are centred around health and human rights.
So, what’s next?

What will happen on the day?
We will meet on College Green, just outside of Parliament for speeches and a memorial for those who have died from our failed drug policies at 12 PM. Refreshments and a place to relax will be available at a nearby space. Activists can meet their MP throughout the day to discuss why our drug laws are failing and what can be done.
If you can only attend for part of the day then please join us regardless. You are welcome at any point! Let us know if you’re planning to attend and we’ll send you more details.

There was a real sense of optimism that our elected representatives were beginning to listen
