Harm reduction
Harm reduction is practical, judgement-free help to stay safer — whatever stage you are at. You do not have to be ready to stop, and you do not have to explain yourself to anyone.
The pathway
How to use this service, step by step.
- 01
Ask, quietly
Raise it at the counter or by phone. The conversation is short, private, and led by whatever you want to talk about.
- 02
Practical information
Safer-use information, overdose prevention, wound-care guidance, and take-home naloxone where it would help.
- 03
Referral when it helps
If specialist support would be useful we connect you to it. If not, the conversation simply ends there — no pressure.
Good to know
- You decide how much to share. Nothing is written into a record you have not agreed to.
- Take-home naloxone is free here and needs no prescription.
