Chemsex remains a hidden and often misunderstood issue — but its impact on mental health, physical wellbeing, and social stability is significant. For organisations working in housing, mental health, sexual health, drug services, or wellbeing provision, understanding chemsex is no longer optional — it's essential.

• A clear understanding of what chemsex is and how it differs from other forms of drug use
• Insight into who is affected, including the cultural, psychological, and social drivers behind chemsex use
• Confidence and language skills to open up supportive, non-judgemental conversations with clients
• Strategies to create safer spaces for disclosure and ongoing support
