Due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic we are working remotely online.
Click here for more INFORMATION and how you can access SUPPORT from home.

For Women

For Women

As chemsex has dominated the drug & alcohol debate on the LGBT scene for gay and bisexual men the support needs of lesbian, bisexual and trans women have often been overlooked. Antidote offers support for LBT women, delivered by women who have a good understanding of the pressures and problems that come with recreational drug or alcohol use.

Women workers are also available at all our mixed-sex services including our weekly walk-in assessment service; Soho drop-in; and one-to-one keyworking and counselling. If you prefer something less informal then check out our social and support groups.

Antidote Drop-Ins

You can visit our drop ins where you will find a welcoming environment with experts available for a chat and a full assessment of your needs. Acupuncture and refreshments are available and no appointment is needed. Women workers are available to see you at the drop in.

Monday Drop-In @London Friend

Each Monday we host a walk-in assessment service at our offices. You do not need an appointment. Acupuncture is available. Come along if you would like a referral into structured support, or just want a confidential and informal chat about your drug or alcohol concerns. Women workers are available to see you at the Monday clinic.
When: Every Monday, 11am to 1pm
Where: London Friend, 86 Caledonian Road, London N19DN

Thursday Drop-In @Turning Point

At our evening drop in you will find a welcoming environment with experts available for a chat. Acupuncture and refreshments are available. No appointment needed. Women workers are available to see you at the drop in.

When: Every Thursday, 6pm to 8.30pm
Where: Turning Point, 32A Wardour Street, London W1D6AQ

You can access a list of our services or contact us by email to discuss your needs: antidote@londonfriend.org.uk.

Antidote helpline:  Contact us to discuss your drug or alcohol issues on 020 7833 1674 (10am-6pm, Monday to Friday). Ask for someone from the Antidote Team.
