Needle and Syringe Programmes are one of the most effective interventions for preventing the transmission of bloodborne viruses, including hepatitis C.
Yet despite this, our new research has found alarming gaps exist in provision and oversight.
ALT In 2025, we mapped pharmacy-based NSP in England. We found
ALT Only 26% of local authorities were able to give us an accurate list of pharmacies that provide NSP in their area.
ALT Of the pharmacies we knew were providing NSP in 2023 and were contacted for this research, 32% had stopped the service.
ALT Of the pharmacies that did offer NSP and could answer our questions on service quality, 70% restricted how much equipment people could collect in a single visit.
If these issues aren’t resolved, we will struggle to maintain the successes we’ve achieved in eliminating hepatitis C.
To see what we found in more detail, and what we’re calling for to get NSP back on track, read our new report here ⬇️ ⬇️⬇️
