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.

英国有问题的药物使用（PSU）在16-24岁的年轻人中最高，最近估计每年有6.9％的妇女食用非法物质。患有PSU的年轻妇女是一个长期掌握的，经过精心研究的人群。妇女的治疗需求是独一无二的，但是关于PSU女性想要的服务的规定缺乏和很少的研究。我的任务是增强穿越PSU和超越PSU的年轻女性的声音。我从印度使用类似人群的视觉方法中带来了见解，并将在研究，英国政策和服务发展中嵌入妇女的观点。这项工作是与英国最大的药物和酒精治疗提供者之一的人类慈善机构建立了合作伙伴关系的基础。目标1：为了增强对英国PSU年轻女性的风险，韧性和康复经验的心理，社会和文化洞察力。这将通过系统的研究评论和一项研究研究，其恢复旅程中有12-15岁的女性有多种样本。数据将使用信息信息的访谈生成，并通过主题分析进行分析。目标2：在PSU方面促进年轻女性的声音，以提高公众意识并在英国提供政策。这将通过制作5个联合制作的电影，公众参与以及推广政策摘要来实现。目标3：适应视觉方法以增强PSU年轻女性的服务提供。这将通过与人类与服务使用者和提供商进行知识交流的安置以及与PSU年轻女性使用视觉方法的培训手册的创建手册来实现。科学影响包括了解支持PSU恢复的创新解决方案的基础。社会影响包括中断剥夺的间断周期。鉴于在药物治疗上花费的每磅为未来的成本节省了2.5倍，经济影响可能是巨大的。
