We offer information and advice to the residents of Tameside about a range of substances, including drugs, alcohol and over-the-counter medication.

When you are ready to make changes to your drug or alcohol use, we can provide:

  • Face-to-face support sessions, groups and workshops
  • Prescribed medication if needed
  • Access to detox to help you quit for good

We aim to understand what it is that you want and then support you in a variety of different ways to achieve your goals. Our workers are welcoming and are here to support you!

Needle and syringe programmes

Needle and syringe programmes, sometimes known as needle exchanges, are places where you can get new, clean injecting equipment and advice for staying safe. You can also return any used equipment so that it can be safely disposed of.

If you want to access needle and syringe programmes in person, there are a number of options. If you see this logo, it means that you can exchange your needles here.

We also offer a needle and syringe programme by post, with the option of discrete packaging, for free. Please ask your keyworker or a member of staff in the needle exchange for the code you will need to access this service. 

Some local pharmacies also offer a free needle and syringe programme. Find your nearest one below.
