Each individual shoe can be adjusted from the back of the drum but assuming both sides are actually working OK and it's just a case of reducing the handbrake movement, remove the centre trim where the door mirror switch is mounted - it just clips on - and you'll see the adjustment nut/locknut. Undo the locknut, adjust lever throw by turning the adjustment nut then tighten locknut. Drive the car and make sure there's no binding before replacing the trim.
