We would like to say a massive congratulations to Sue Bull from the Integrated Sexual Health Services for winning ‘The Inspirational Leader Award’ last week at the NUH NHS Trust People First Recognition Awards.

Sue is one of the amazing staff from NUH who alongside us, deliver the Access Project each month; a clinic to support women experiencing severe and multiple disadvantages to access contraception, cervical screenings, vaccinations, screening and treatment.

This partnership has made a massive difference to our clients and has innovated the way we engage women in to sexual health services, removing lots of the barriers that they often face.

Sue, we are so proud of you and we love working with you. Thank you for everything you do.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a day to honour, remember and celebrate those who have tragically lost their lives due to transphobia.

Trans and/or gender diverse people across the world are facing unacceptable barriers; to healthcare, education, housing, employment, and safety.

We believe that every human being has the right to live in safety, free from persecution and harm.

We stand in solidarity with the community, and we hope we provide a safe space for you when you need one.

Yesterday we attended the PDU conference on Neurodivergence and Severe and Multiple Disadvantage.

We enjoyed meeting up with other professionals and sharing good practice. This was a chance for us to look at our services; what we offer, and to see where we can improve services for clients with neurodiversity.

We are always looking for ways to become more inclusive and accessible, if you have any feedback on this, please share it with us.

Introducing.. Lezza Dennis and Lubey Lou as your hosts for The Health Shops’ Family Fortunes!

Today, we had the privilege of delivering a sexual health workshop to Silver Pride, a social group for gay and bisexual men aged 50+.

We absolutely loved doing this and we loved hearing all of your experiences. Thank you for having us attend, you are all amazing.

Today, we have been at an information event hosted by the accommodation providers for refugees and asylum seekers in Nottingham.

We had such a good time meeting people of different backgrounds and cultures, and coming together to learn what support is available in the city.

Since we opened over thirty years ago, we’ve been here to provide harm reduction services to everybody. Our sexual health clinic is for all people who face health inequalities, including refugees and asylum seekers.

We will continue to stand in solidarity with those who are persecuted; to offer compassion and to provide a safe space for those accessing our services.

We are in need of donations for our street outreach. Any help will be kindly appreciated.
