"Realising that I can get my contraception whilst I'm College."

About: Kirklees Sexual Health Outreach / Huddersfield New College open door service

(as the patient),

Me and my mates were just passing the open door area when we saw a woman giving out info and goody bags, she started telling us that we could get contraception from Lorraine or Kathy whilst we were in College.

Hi Bobblecap

thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to go online and give us some feedback about your experience meeting our outreach team. It's always a joy to read people's comments and it sounds like your encounter has been an enlightening one.

Accessing sexual health services is really important, but it can be daunting for many people. We try hard to make sure that our service is available outside of just the traditional clinic settings as we know not everyone can access these for lots of different reasons.

Our nurses, Lorraine and Kathy provide contraception, pregnancy testing, emergency contraception, advice and support in the college on a weekly basis during term time but if you need any help outside college then check out the webpage below for details about Locala clinics across Kirklees or give us a call on 01484 481030

Once again - many thanks for your comments

from all of us at the Locala Sexual Health Outreach + Prevention Team
