Sexually Transmitted Infections

We want to help protect everyone from Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs).

STIs are passed from one person to another through unprotected vaginal, anal or oral sex, by genital contact and through sharing sex toys. Anyone, of any age, who is sexually active can contract an STI.

The best way to protect against STIs is to use a condom. If you’ve had unprotected sex and are concerned about STIs the safest option is to visit a sexual health clinic for a test. Please contact us for an appointment or come along to one of our drop-in clinics in Wakefield, Barnsley or Wigan and Leigh
