Meeting date/time: Friday 27th June

We’re back — and it was brilliant! After far too long apart, the National Needle Exchange Forum (NNEF) held its first face-to-face meeting since before COVID on Friday 27th June at Carr’s Lane Church in Birmingham. This full-day event brought together over 100 people to reconnect, share knowledge, and explore the latest in harm reduction and needle and syringe programme best practices.

Event Details

Venue: Carr’s Lane Church, Birmingham Date: Friday 27th June Time: Full-day event

The day was packed with open discussion, learning, and collaboration, bringing together people passionate about harm reduction and improving services. Whether long-time participants or those attending for the first time, everyone had the opportunity to hear from expert speakers, share experiences, and contribute to the future direction of NSP provision in the UK.

We were especially pleased to see many new faces and distribute around 50 naloxone kits, thanks to our team of trainers.
