Access to clean needles and harm reduction advice

Question:
Access to clean needles and harm reduction advice
Answer:

RESET and seven pharmacies (including Ambrose King Centre for Chemsex packs only) offer a free, confidential and anonymous needle exchange programme. This helps reduce the spread of Blood Borne Viruses and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

This includes access to sterile equipment for people who use drugs and a safe disposal service. This includes Naloxone (an emergency medication that can reverse the effects of an overdose of opioids such as heroin or methadone).

All sites provide a non-judgmental harm reduction and advice service, alternatives to injecting and links to treatment services.
