UK problematic substance use (PSU) is highest in 16-24 year olds with a recent estimate that 6.9% of women consume illegal substances each year. Young women with PSU are a chronically-underserved, under-researched demographic. Women's treatment needs are unique, however there is a dearth of provision and little research on what women with PSU want from services. My mission is to enhance the voice of young women journeying through and beyond PSU. I bring insights from my use of visual methods with a similar demographic in India and will embed women's perspectives in research, UK policy, and service development. This work builds on a partnership with Humankind Charity, one of the UK's largest drug and alcohol treatment providers. Aim 1: To enhance psychological, social and cultural insights into the experience of risk, resilience and recovery with regard to young women with PSU in the UK. This will be achieved through a systematic research review and a research study with a diverse sample of 12-15 women aged 18-30 years on their recovery journey. Data will be generated using visual methods-informed interviews and analysed with Thematic Analysis. Aim 2: To promote young women's voice with respect to PSU to raise public awareness and inform policy in the UK. This will be achieved through creating 5 co-produced films, public engagement, and promoting a policy brief. Aim 3: To adapt visual methods to enhance service provision for young women with PSU. This will be achieved through a placement with Humankind focused on knowledge exchange with service users and providers, and the creation of a training manual on using visual methods with young women with PSU. Scientific impacts include understanding the basis of an innovative solution to supporting the recovery from PSU. Social impacts include interrupting the intergeneration cycle of deprivation. Economic impacts are potentially enormous given that every pound spent on drug treatment saves 2.5 times that in future costs.

英国16-24奥尔兹的人使用问题物质（PSU）最多，最近估计每年有6.9%的妇女使用非法物质。患有PSU的年轻女性是一个长期服务不足，研究不足的人口统计。妇女的治疗需求是独特的，但是缺乏供应，很少有研究与PSU的妇女想要从服务。我的使命是提高通过和超越PSU的年轻女性的声音。我带来了我的视觉方法与印度类似的人口使用的见解，并将在研究，英国政策和服务发展嵌入妇女的观点。这项工作建立在与英国最大的药物和酒精治疗提供者之一Humankind Charity的伙伴关系基础上。目标1：提高心理，社会和文化的洞察力的风险，复原力和恢复的经验与PSU在英国的年轻女性。这将通过系统的研究审查和对12-15名年龄在18-30岁之间的处于康复过程中的妇女进行的研究来实现。数据将使用视觉方法生成知情的采访，并与专题分析进行分析。目标2：促进青年妇女在公共服务股方面的发言权，以提高联合王国公众的认识并为政策提供信息。这将通过制作5部联合制作的电影、公众参与和宣传政策简报来实现。目标3：采用视觉方法，加强为患有精神分裂症的年轻妇女提供的服务。实现这一目标的方法是，在Humankind组织安排一个职位，重点是与服务用户和提供者进行知识交流，并编写一本培训手册，指导患有精神疾病的年轻妇女使用视觉方法。科学影响包括了解支持PSU恢复的创新解决方案的基础。社会影响包括中断代际贫困循环。经济影响可能是巨大的，因为每花费一磅用于药物治疗可以节省未来成本的2.5倍。
