Ask ANI
The Ask for ANI (Action Needed Immediately) codeword scheme has been developed to allow victims of domestic abuse to access support from the safety of their local pharmacy.
When in a community pharmacy look for the ASK FOR ANI symbol on display, this means we are ready to help.
Approach a member of staff and ASK FOR ANI
They will offer you a private space, provide a phone and ask if you want a 999 police response or to speak to a domestic abuse support helpline.
