Parties
* Don’t accept a drink or cigarette from anyone you don’t trust, in case it gets spiked with an illegal substance
* Don’t take drinks from large open containers such as punch bowls.
* Don’t share or exchange drinks.
* If you begin to feel drunk after only a few drinks, seek help from a trusted friend or management at the club/pub/ in case you fall ill, have an accident or end up with people who may not look after you
* If you are taking drugs, try to make sure you are with friends and tell them exactly what you have taken in case you run into difficulties. Especially if they are drugs you haven’t tried before or you are mixing them
* Make sure you keep hydrated, particularly if you are taking dance drugs like ecstasy. But beware that too much water consumption can be dangerous. Do not consume more than a pint of non-alcoholic fluid per hour
