Spiking Drinks


🍸 If you think yourself or a friend may have been spiked, speaking to someone quickly is the key. 

 

As part of the national Spiking Week of Intensification, we’re raising awareness of exactly what you can do if you think you’ve been spiked. 

 

❗ If you report it to us as soon as possible, there are lots of options to help confirm and investigate what has happened. We can take a sample that can be used for testing – this is completely your choice, and this will only be done once we have your consent. 

 

⏰ Some drugs stay in your system for only a short amount of time, so might not be found if you leave it too long. Other drugs do stay in the body longer, so whilst it is always better to act quickly, it might be possible to test you up to seven days after the incident.

 

📞 However, we want to hear from you if you think you’ve been spiked – no matter when this happened.

👮 You can speak to an officer out and about, or report this through 101 or our online form: https://orlo.uk/1u8kM

 

➡️ You can also find more information and advice on our website: https://orlo.uk/UYGPZ or through our partners at 1625 Outreach: https://orlo.uk/cvVLO
