Needle exchanges


To dispose of needles used for prescribed medication, contact the service that issued your sharps bin to arrange disposal. This will most likely be your GP or hospital.


Needle exchanges aim to reduce harm and risk factors by:

  • providing free clean sterile needles and injecting equipment
  • accepting returned used needles

The needle exchange service is designed to offer non-judgemental and confidential support and advice to those who inject drugs.
