All-Party Parliamentary Group for Drug Policy Reform

Founded January 2011

The APPG for Drug Policy Reform is a group of cross-party Parliamentarians who believe there must be an end to the severe public health and societal harms caused by the global ‘war on drugs’ – not least in the UK, where drug-related deaths are the highest on record.

The group meets regularly, collaborating with a range of partners to make evidence-based, health-focused policy recommendations to the Government, as well as leaders in health, policing and criminal justice.
