In this video segment, the speaker explains their understanding of harm reduction as a non‑judgmental approach that meets people where they are rather than demanding they stop drug use or change sexual practices. They describe the work of Impulse, emphasizing that the organization acts as a sign‑posting service, offering guidance without imposing strict rules. The speaker then shares their own chemsex history, recalling that they began using chemsex substances around age 22‑23 after moving to London, where they discovered a vibrant queer community, embraced their gay identity, and experienced a period of intense sexual activity and enjoyment.

I mean, if we look at what harm reduction is, it's— to me, it's not telling people to stop. It's really not. It's meeting them where they're at. Yeah. Um, and that's a huge thing that we do with Impulse. Uh, okay. We're very much that, I guess, more signposters, I would always say. Like, we're not there to be like, you know, it's not like, you're taking drugs, here's how you need to stop, or you're having sex, you must always use a condom.

Uh, I probably didn't really start taking chems properly till I was about 22, 23 when I first moved to London. Loved it. Best time of my life. It was great. I'd finally found like a queer community. I loved being gay. I was getting loads of sex. It was amazing. Like, great.
