NEEDLE EXCHANGES

Needle Exchanges are confidential, free and available to anyone needing clean injecting equipment and/or condoms.

As you may already know, if your injecting equipment is not sterile, you run a serious risk of getting H.I.V, Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C.

If you need information about infections, diseases, Drugs or Methadone Treatment, Needle Exchanges are the place to go. They can also make a referral, if you wish, for testing for H.I.V, Hep B, C or other Sexually Transmitted Infections.

Here is a list of the Needle Exchanges in the Dublin/Kildare/Wicklow area. For further information, please telephone the GBRD at 01 8262364 or e-mail us at info@gbrd.ie
