Sexual Health Improvement for Population and Patients

The team tackles a range of local sexual health challenges, including increasing rates of HIV infection, higher than national average rates of Chlamydia, high teenage pregnancy rates in some disadvantaged communities and a rise in abortions amongst women over 25.
