The NSW Government aims to reduce syringe sharing among people who inject drugs and increase the distribution of sterile injecting equipment.
To support this, the interactive map below shows all public NSP outlets across NSW, including staffed NSPs where you can access advice, information and referral as well as machines and chutes. Sterile injecting equipment can also be obtained from some pharmacies. To find a pharmacy near you, visit the Pharmacy Guild.
The NSW Needle and Syringe Program is an exempt needle and syringe program for the purpose of clause 37 of the Drug Misuse and Trafficking Regulation 2021.
