Youngsters get an introduction to sexual health clinics.
This paper describes the development of mock sexual health clinics for young people in an area with high rates of teenage pregnancy and poor awareness of sexual health services. The multi-disciplinary initiative was developed in partnership with local schools and aimed to promote access to sexual health and contraceptive services by breaking down barriers and misconceptions. Subsequent registrations of young people at local family planning clinics have increased dramatically and a full evaluation is being undertaken.
