The service will improve sexual health by delivering a range of interventions across the life course; with a focused direction of travel towards prevention, building resilience and self-esteem, along with consistently promoting healthy choices. The service will provide open and easy access, cost-effective, high-quality provision for contraception and prevention, diagnosis, and management of sexually transmitted infections, according to evidence-based protocols.
Our services provide free information and advice on all types of contraception, STI testing and treatment and psychosexual management.
