It's the start of European Testing Week!
Did you know, you can catch hepatitis in several ways:
• Sharing needles or other drug related items such as straws, spoons etc.
• Having medical, dental or aesthetic procedures with unsterilised equipment
• Engaging in chems*x, or having rough, a**l or unprotected s*x with someone who has hep C
• Sharing personal care items such as a toothbrush or razor
• Blood transfusion or organ donation before 1996
With both hepatitis B and C, sometimes people have no symptoms, or have mild symptoms for a few weeks, including fever, tiredness, reduced appetite, and vomiting. It’s best to get tested as both hep B and hep C can lead to serious health issues, such as liver damage, if left untreated.
We offer free, straightforward testing for hep B, hep C and HIV. To find out more about getting tested, call us on 0300 303 8160 or email eastsuss*[email protected] and someone from our team will be in touch.

Lots of people have been asking about ni****ne pouches, snus and chewing to***co… so here’s the basic info👇

🍃 Ni****ne pouches don’t contain to***co leaf. They’re small sachets that deliver ni****ne only through your gums. Snus does contain to***co and is banned for sale in the UK.

💡Even though pouches don’t contain to***co, they still deliver ni****ne, are unregulated in the UK and can possibly irritate gums or cause dizziness and nausea.

🫁Ni****ne pouches are likely less harmful than smoking, but should not be used if you have never smoked. Research on long-term effects is still limited and some illegally sold pouches contain very high ni****ne levels.

To learn more about the safe ni****ne options to help you stop smoking visit: https://bit.ly/4jdcTlL

For more information, please email us at eastsuss*[email protected] 📧
Or telephone us at 0300 303 8160 📞

If you have autism let us know what will help you, and we will try and provide it as best as we can. For example, this could be:

- Moving to a quieter room
- Adjusting the lighting
- Following up the meeting with an email summary of what was discussed
