The Loop develops and delivers innovative health interventions through its drug checking services and related harm reduction advice and support. We are committed to ensuring this is available to the public in a variety of community settings, and that related information is communicated and disseminated widely to reduce drug related harm. Evidence shows drug checking is effective in reducing drug-related harm and The Loop continues to expand this evidence base, alongside partner agencies and with similar services developing internationally.

The Loop’s mission and vision include a commitment to developing a nationwide network of drug checking services that is non-judgemental, accessible and available to all. This requires us to consider equality of access, and through doing so, recognise the challenges and barriers which may exist for individuals and communities. We are then able to consider responses and deliver solutions.
