Just leaving this in Anything Goes, rather than Drugs to get as wide a response as possible.
As part of the work we do on TheSite.org we do some work with the Department of Health (around content and that kind of thing) - and they were really interested to hear any feedback we, or you, had about Frank.
So have you ever used Frank, the website, the helpine, any of the services? What did you think?
Feel free to be as open as you're comfortable with, I'm sure any feedback would help.

TRES HELPFUL FRANK. -.-
Whilst doing some research into drug use a few years ago, I decided to have a look at what they were saying. Frank appears to be nothing more than a government propaganda service. If attempting to scare people off drugs worked, the whole thing would have been wound down years ago.
As has already been said, it's very much just government propaganda laid out to expose the message 'drugs are bad'.
Just scroll down and have a look at the titles for the real life stories on this page - http://www.talktofrank.com/article.aspx?id=244 - says it all really.
I also remember finding a couple of incorrect facts when I was looking over the site before.
Spouting crap about drugs to kids never helps the matter when they find out they were lied too.
What about the effects of water flouridation? Pesticides? Intensive chemical fertilizers? Prescription anti-depressants? TV? I think the government and Frank should have a long talk and figure out why no-one believes a word they say! YOUR TIME IS UP. :P
The information on there now isnt that bad anymore, well not for a government site anyway. Its certainly improved a lot, but that isnt saying much.
