Exchange visits with Soviet colleagues are being encouraged. I recently had the opportunity of spending two weeks visiting services for drug misusers in the Soviet Union with two colleagues, a visit sponsored by the British Council as a UK/USSR collaborative project. We spent most of our time in Leningrad and the surrounding region, and a short time in Moscow. Since then a party of Russian specialists has visited the Wessex Region to see drug and alcohol services.
