Contraception and sexual health

We run lots of different sexual health services and clinics across the district. They offer daytime and evening appointments as well as drop-in sessions.

The clinics are for people of all ages. They are free and confidential and staffed by specialist nurses and doctors. We also provide special services for young people and women with unplanned pregnancies. And our sexual health training team are often out and about in the local community raising awareness and providing training and education.
