Families of drug addicts call for radical change in the law
Families of drug addicts who died from overdoses are calling for a radical change in the law to save other young lives.
They met in Bristol to support a campaign called, "Anyone's Child". They're calling for drugs like heroin to be legalised because they say users should be helped, not criminalised.
The Transform campaign group says legalising drugs will:
- Saves lives
- Protect health
- Reduce crime and violence
- Protect children
- Save money
