Hide and Seek co-host Dean Beck reveals he recently discovered his flatmate dead, believed to be due to an accidental overdose of prescription medications.

Together with co-host Tim Little, Dean chats to Harm Reduction Victoria’s President Bill O’Loughlin about the life saving work his organisation undertakes.

VAC’s new website resource for LGBTIQ people has been received with universal praise. Combining mental health, drug information and sexual health, Touchbase is based on harm reduction principles.
