Abstract

Suggests some ways to tackle the issue of solvent misuse. Discusses the common solvents used and the ways in which they might be misused. Describes a new resource designed to address the issues in a sensible way and help children cultivate skills that will allow them to keep themselves safe: problem‐solving and decision‐making, being assertive, communication skills, maintaining friendships and investigative skills. Concludes that the resource will provide a major contributory factor towards helping children to keep themselves safe and healthy and to give them a positive self‐image.
