Keep your drink nearby
Never leave it unattended. Replace it whenever you feel uncertain.
02
Watch drinks being prepared
Avoid accepting open drinks from people you do not trust.
03
Stay with trusted people
Tell friends immediately when something feels unusual or wrong.
04
Act quickly
Alert venue staff and seek help whenever you feel unsafe.

Feeling unwell or think you were spiked?
Stop drinking. Tell someone you trust and alert venue staff immediately.
- Stay with a trusted person and move somewhere safe.
- Call NHS 111 when you need urgent medical advice.
- Call 999 when seriously unwell or facing immediate danger.
- Report suspected spiking promptly using 101 or 999.
- Keep the drink when safely possible, because it may support evidence.
