 AB    The pattern of British drug service provision was transformed during the
       late 1980s. Policy makers and service providers recognised the need for
       a more flexible response to changing drug trends and client needs;
       consequently community-based services proliferated. HIV has had
       considerable impact on the working approach of many agencies, where harm
       minimisation is now the immediate goal. This article provides an
       overview of patterns of drug use and drug service provision in Britain.
