Refresh

Refresh ReFRESH is a young people’s service providing free and confidential information and support to under 19s who live in Hull.

ReFRESH isn’t just for young people who want support about their drug and alcohol use. Talk to ReFRESH confidentially if you want information, you’re concerned about your own or someone else’s drug use, have a question about New Psychoactive Substances or other drugs - we’re here to help. We also offer support for stopping smoking and support for parents and carers. We are open for drop-in support between 1pm and 4:30pm Monday - Thursday and 1pm - 4pm Friday.

You don’t always know what’s inside a THC v**e.
Some products can be mixed with unknown or harmful substances — not just THC. That means unpredictable effects and real risks to your health.
Stay aware. Ask questions. Don’t assume it’s safe just because it’s common.

Alcohol & the Teenage Brain 🧠

• The brain is still developing until the mid-20s — alcohol can disrupt this growth.
• Impacts memory and learning, making school and exams harder.
• Affects decision-making and impulse control → more risky choices.
• Can increase anxiety, low mood, and emotional ups & downs.
• Disrupts sleep, which teens need for brain development.
• Linked to higher risk of addiction later in life.
• Can affect coordination and reaction time — increasing accident risk.

Your brain is building its future — what you put in it matters 💙
