Domestic abuse victims can 'ask for Annie' in Island pharmacies

Victims of domestic abuse are reminded they can discreetly ask for help in Island pharmacies.

The code word 'ANI' stands for 'Action Needed Immediately,' which was established in 2020 to support victims locally.

Pharmacies taking part in the scheme have received specialist training, and will have discreet signs posted in shops.

When you 'ask for Annie,' a pharmacy worker will offer you a private space and understand if you need to speak to police or access support services.
