    Online
    5 December 2022
    2:00pm – 4:00pm

    This event is aimed at anyone responsible for establishing or running a Local Drug Information System (LDIS). It will provide an overview of the purpose of the LDIS and how it fits into regional and national systems. There will be an opportunity to hear from two areas on their experience of setting up and running an LDIS, and there will be a practical exercise on using the grading and efficacy matrices set out in the LDIS guidance. Please note, this event will be held twice (5th December 2022 and 25th January 2023, both 2-4pm); the introduction and practical exercise will be the same at both events, but the local system speakers will be different.
