In Kirklees (a metropolitan borough of West Yorkshire, England), emergency contraception (EC) has been free via 29 accredited pharmacies since 2017. The scheme is funded by Locala, the local sexual health service provider commissioned by Kirklees Council. A snapshot of EC provision was captured to understand trends in uptake in the region by user age, indication and postcode.
