imcrazy189 asked: My last roommate had to have a pick put in so he could get factor everyday because he is a hemophiliac. As a result, he had to have gloves, bandages, dressings alcohol swabs, syringes, etc delivered. When he moved out, he left 2 boxes full of supplies. We contacted him yesterday the other day and he said he didn’t need them. Do you think the local hospitals would accept them or is there some organization out there that can use them? I would feel bad throwing it all away but it is taking up space.
They’re the little syringe things without a needle on them.

Ollie asked: I self harm and can’t afford the medical/ first aid supplies I need. I do not want to go to the doctors or A&E because it is pointless, but I really need to get regular supplies because I have to change the dressings very regularly, and I almost always have something that definitely needs to be dressed and covered. Please don’t lecture me on stopping, I have tried and am now trying to cut down. Does anyone know anywhere in the UK that could send anything, or any charities that offer them?
Thank you for your answers.
