Introducing Community Connections – Brislington

We are launching a new well-being drop-in session in the heart of Brislington!

At these sessions, we’ll be offering a place where anyone can drop by and access support if they are struggling with their relationship with drugs and/or alcohol. We’ll also be offering other services including access to clean injecting equipment and the overdose reversal drug naloxone.

Here’s Liam, our worker who will be running the sessions:

Hello, my name is Liam and I work for the Bristol Drugs project. I’ll be running the Community Connections session in Brislington. 

Growing up in South Bristol myself, I understand the strong sense of community and want to make sure residents can access the support they need. 

At our drop-in, you are able to stop by for a hot drink and a snack, and there will always be myself and another BDP worker available if you feel you’d like to chat about your drug and/or alcohol use. We also offer a needle exchange, periodic housing support, and can refer you to further support if that’s what you would like. 

It’s really important to me that it’s a friendly, welcoming and confidential space, for you to access whatever support you feel you need, even if it’s just a cup of tea. There’s no obligation to attend, you can pop in as and when or you can visit us every week to check in. 

We’re at St Peters Methodist Church on Allison Road, right next to where the number 1 bus stops. We are also able to refund your bus ticket if that’s how you travel. 

I look forward to meeting you soon! 

Where?

St Peter’s Methodist Church, Brislington, BS4 4NZ (Easily accessible on the Number 1 bus) 

When?

2:30pm – 4pm, Every Monday
