Half A Million Steps Screening
Event description
The Fair Treatment for Tamworth Region Campaign would like to invite you to our screening of the documentary film "Half a Million Steps".
In October 2018, as part of the Fair Treatment campaign, 100 supporters walked the 500,000 steps from Dubbo to deliver a message to NSW Parliament in Sydney – highlighting how far a person in regional NSW may have to travel to reach the drug treatment they need.
The “Long Walk to Treatment” has now been made into a powerful and moving documentary telling the personal stories behind a movement to reform drug laws and policy and make fair treatment available to all.
This is an issue of huge concern to our community. Watch this film and see what 60 organisations –including health, medical, police and legal experts and people personally affected and their families - are saying about how we can save lives and give people a better chance to turn their lives around.
Join us for a free sausage sizzle and a discussion after the film, as we think ahead to this years parliamentary drug summit!
