BODY TALK – HEALTH AND WELLBEING, RELATIONSHIPS AND SEX

FWD

FWD support young people across Camden who want to find out more about their drug use, including alcohol.  

We work with young people aged 8 to 25 who are registered with a Camden GP, a resident in Camden or attend school in Camden.  

We also work with looked after young people placed with carers outside of the borough.

Please note: As part of your drug or alcohol treatment you'll be asked about you, your recovery so far, and whether you agree to some of this information being shared. The information about your treatment is used, with your permission, to help understand more about which treatments work best to help improve our services. Nothing will be shared without your consent and no details which could identify you in any way will ever be shared either. 

 

Do you need help to quit smoking or vaping?

Most children and young people don’t vape or smoke, but vapes and cigarettes both contain nicotine which is highly addictive and can be hard to stop once you have started. 

Nicotine cravings can make you irritable, cause anxiety and headaches, affect your sleep and concentration.

How to dispose of vapes

All types of vapes can and should be recycled but they cannot go in the bin or the recycling bin. Some supermarkets and other local shops have take-back schemes and some vape brands have a postal return scheme.

You can also take them to the Reuse and Recycling Centre on Regis Road, Kentish Town, NW5 3EW.
