The charity is now offering 'snap wraps'. These are an excellent distraction technique that can be used on wrists or ankles. The wraps come as a flat band but when slapped against the wrist they wrap around. They can then be re-straightend easily as they snap back into their original form and can be continually re-used. The wraps are simply orange (colour of self harm awareness) with 'nshn' printed in black on the strip. An example can be viewed here:

Non-members can purchase them at a cost of £3.00 (Inc P&P) by sending a cheque or postal order to:

Cheque and postal orders should be made out to 'National Self Harm Network'.
