"How it Started" In 1998, a Youth Consultations were held throughout the North East of Scotland where young people from all over the north east of Scotland were invited to give their opinions on a range of subjects, including drug education. There was a clear message, they wanted harder hitting drugs education and they wanted to be involved. "tHe buZZ" was developed from that message. |
Grampian Police Community Beat Officer Constable Shona Stewart, along with pupils
at Torry Academy and students from Aberdeen College, formed a working group to
look at the issues raised at the consultations. From these discussions |
the idea of a short video, together with a manual of discussion based activities
emerged. The pupils wanted the video to focus on Heroin addiction, as they saw it as the major problem. |
