FAQs
What is LDIS and who is it for?
LDIS (Local Drug Information System) is a secure platform designed for public health teams in local authorities. It helps collect, manage, and act on drug intelligence to support timely decision-making and protect local communities.
Do contributors need a login to submit intelligence?
No. LDIS includes a publicly available intelligence form that allows partners - such as police, healthcare workers, or third sector organisations - to submit information without requiring a login. Only the local authority’s public health team needs access credentials to manage and review submissions.
How is this different from using email or basic web forms?
LDIS replaces fragmented, manual processes with a structured system built specifically for drug intelligence. It captures richer data, provides a centralised dashboard, and streamlines the creation and distribution of alerts based on national guidance.
Can LDIS help us send targeted alerts to different groups?
Yes. LDIS allows you to send alerts to a range of audiences—including your PIN network, third-sector partners, local schools, or neighbouring authorities. Alerts can be customised and sent directly from within the system.
Can we customise the alert templates and intelligence form?
Yes. Both the alert templates and the intelligence form can be tailored to meet your local requirements, while still aligning with national guidance and best practices.
