This week is Sexual Health Awareness Week! We will be posting all about how to keep yourself safe through contraception, testing and consent. #SexualHealthAwareness #SexualHealth #SafeSex #Healthcare #AccessibleHealthcare #Inclusivecare #SHW23 #SHWeek2023 #Basis #Educate

There is a whole range of contraception available, which each offer different forms of protection. Talk to your worker or look at the NHS website for the full range of options and advice about each. #SexualHealthAwareness #SexualHealth #SafeSex #Healthcare #SHW23 #Contraception

STIs are transferred through unprotected sex. It's important to get tested often, especially if you think you’ve been exposed to a STI or you’ve recently changed partners. Many people don't show symptoms so might not know they have a STI. #SexualHealth #SHW23 #STItesting #Basis

Consent is needed for all sexual interactions. If you’ve said yes to sex, you can change your mind at any time. If you’ve agreed to one sexual act, you can say no to a different sexual act. #NoMeansNo and only an enthusiastic yes means yes. #SexualHealthAwareness #SHW23 #Consent
