Abstract
First Paragraph: Scotland’s drug death crisis requires a range of innovative solutions. The COVID-19 pandemic signalled the start of a realisation that digital technologies could reshape services and offer person-centred developments to strengthen support for people at risk of drug related harm such as overdose. For this to happen, the public and voluntary sector supporting this group needed to be appropriately digitally able and connected. Against this backdrop, the Digital Lifelines Scotland (DLS) programme, run by the Scottish Government’s Digital Health and Care Directorate was formed. It was a partnership between the Drug Death Taskforce (DDTF), Digital Health & Care Innovation Centre (DHI), Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations (SCVO), Turning Point Scotland (TPS), Drug Research Network Scotland (DRNS) and Connecting Scotland. The programme was delivered through targeted funded initiatives referred to as Early Adopters 1 and Early Adopters 2.
