About
New Zealand was the first country in the world to introduce a national state sponsored Needle Exchange Programme.
Today the programme operates from Whangarei through to Invercargill through a network of dedicated outlets and pharmacy based exchanges.
We distribute over 3 million needles each year. In addition to support and advice on harm reduction we also collect returns and ensure the safe disposal of equipment used for injecting drug use.

Drug Checking
Drug checking is a free and confidential service that checks your drugs to see what's in them. If you can't make it to a clinic, you can use reagent tests to check your drugs at home.
