Fund spiking testing in A&E and in walk-in sexual health clinics
Background
Fund greater access to testing for spiking victims, to allow the scale of the spiking cases to be quantified, truly analysed and tackled. We think this should be available in hospitals and sexual health clinics to help understand, deter and tackle spiking.
Additional details
Some victims don't know to call the police for forensic testing, so it’s unreported/ uncatalogued. With an estimated 90% of cases being unreported, the scale of spiking is unknown. How do you tackle a problem if you don’t understand even how big it is? We believe that without change, more people will, avoidably, be put into vulnerable, life-altering and potentially life-threatening situations.
