Needle Exchange and Naloxone\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Safety is at the heart of all we do. Our needle exchange is designed to reduce harm to those who have found themselves in the cycle of substance use.\u00a0 It is a free and confidential service where anyone can dispose of used works as well as accessing clean injecting equipment and wound care packs.<\/p>\n

Using new, sterile injecting equipment helps keep you safe from infections, wounds and abscesses.<\/p>\n

It protects you from viruses like HIV, hep B and hep C.<\/p>\n

Naloxone<\/b><\/h4>\n

Naloxone (provided under the brand names Prenoxad and Nyxoid in the UK) is a medication used to reverse opioid overdose. Since 2015, this medication has been more widely available in the UK as a \u2018take home\u2019 emergency medication.\u00a0 We can dispense Naloxone to anyone who wishes to help us save lives.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

To book on for Naloxone training please contact jocaesar@guildfordaction.org.uk<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n
