The UK is facing a major sexual health challenge and young people are most likely to be affected. Diagnoses of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are increasing rapidly and rates of teenage birth are still the highest in Western Europe.
It is therefore very important that if YOU are a young person that you know all the facts about HIV, other STIs and pregnancy. It is also vital that you have access to a detailed list of contacts, useful websites and helplines for additional support and advice.

Education is the most effective means of preventing HIV, other STIs and teen pregnancies. Our innovative new ‘Working with Young People’ range of resources is designed to raise awareness around these issues. The posters, leaflets and info cards in this range are very popular with schools, universities, youth groups and any other organisations looking to deliver co-ordinated and appropriate sex education.
