Blown Away : Cocaine/Dividing Lines

"Blown Away" cocaine III dividing lines, is a drug education publication for use with Key Stage 4 students or above.

Becky and Luke both use cocaine. Luke uses it to help him perform at work (as a car salesman) and to be more socially confident.

Becky uses it because she likes it and it helps her to have a good time.

She dreams of celebrity status and a glamorous lifestyle.

One seems to manage their cocaine use OK but the other doesn't.

Will who supplies the cocaine is becoming increasingly frustrated with Luke's inability to pay and finds his own way to collect on the debt.

Luke's 14 year old sister Megan watches how Mum and Dad react to Luke's behaviour and then makes her own rather surprising decision about the drug.

The publication is supported by easy to use and innovative lesson plans (packed with interactive activities and resources), which will inform, stimulate discussion and challenge attitudes.

Blown Away is also included in the Secondary Integrated PSHCE education Toolkit supplied free to all Kirklees high schools in July 2008.

The Third Edition of the Toolkit published in March 2010 is also available for purchase (ISBN 978-1-904450-45-0).
