Maybe not eh!

 "With a repertoire featuring arias, hymns and classical crossover music, Katherine Jenkins has had four classical number one albums to date and performed at venues all over the world.
She recently revealed that she had taken up to three lines of cocaine a night and took ecstasy pills. She also ate cakes with cannabis inside."

I recommend Rolfe Harris.

Thanks to all who have shared their knowledge on this one.

I've been reading more on the suggestions about classical music [1] [2] and
it primarily seems to present youths from gathering in an area by making it
seem uncool and unfamiliar. Does anyone know of evidence of classical music
deterring drug users?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Alan.

Dear All

Yes, I have heard that this is very effective in dispersing not just drug
users but youth gangs hanging around on street corners. I would imagine
that
bagpipe music might work just as well!

Peter

Yorkshire Metro apparently pipe classical music into their toilets, as it
generally puts off drug users.

Do not use the UV or blue lights.

(a) it makes it very difficult to see for people with certain visual
impairments

(b) it is a waste of time as it does not stop the drug users.

Subject: UV lights in public toilets

A client told me recently that a member of the publi

Hello,

A client told me recently that a member of the public was found to be
injecting illegal drugs in the public toilets of their building. To prevent
that incident from happening again, the staff put UV lights into the
cubicles in the toilets to make it more difficult for drug addicts to see
their veins, and prevent their toilets being used for this purpose. The
staff were wondering how the colour contrast and lighting would be affected
for people with vision impairments.

I have since heard from another organisation that drug addicts sometimes
use Tipp-Ex to highlight their veins so that they can inject easily in
public toilets, meaning that the UV lights are useless in preventing drug
addicts from injecting.

Does anybody have any advice or best practices on this matter?

Thank you for your time.

Regards,
Alan.
