Our delivery programme uses our Health & Wellbeing Champions to deliver peer-peer Naloxone training in preparation for release. Statistically the period immediately after release is when prisoners with substance misuse issues are most vulnerable to overdose.

Leading from the top, Governor Huntington is trained in the administration of Naloxone, which includes spotting the signs of an opioid overdose, assembling the Naloxone kit and safely delivering the injection.
