Local events to mark World Oral Health day
Thursday 20 March is World Oral Health day! See what our oral health team has organised to mark the occasion.
Contraception
Get free contraception, including emergency contraception, long-acting reversible contraception (LARC), and free condoms.
You can get free contraception through the NHS at various locations across Haringey. This includes long-acting reversible contraception (LARC) like IUDs (also known as coils) and emergency contraception such as the morning-after pill.
There are many types of contraception to choose from. For information on what type is best for you, visit:
- your local sexual health clinic
- a Healthy Living Pharmacy
- your GP practice to talk to a nurse or doctor
To learn more about different types of contraception, visit the NHS contraception guide
Emergency contraception
Emergency contraception like the morning-after pill and IUDs are used soon after having unprotected sex. They significantly reduce your chances of getting pregnant.
Emergency contraception is available for sale at most local pharmacies or for free from sexual health clinics, some GP surgeries, and participating Healthy Living Pharmacies. As this is a list, consider bulleting.

As part of the Haringey Deal, we have collaborated with young people and local radio station Unity X to create a series of radio shows about sexual and reproductive health made by, and for, young people in Haringey.
