Sexual Health Network Event
The Sexual Health Network offers a chance for professionals working with those affected by sexual health to come together, learn and share knowledge, ideas and good practice.
The Integrated Sexual Health Service (ISHS) runs the steering group, made up of multi-agency professionals from across Derby and Derbyshire, which develops, delivers and co-ordinates the running of these meetings. The events run bi-annually and are delivered in both Derby County and Derby City venues.
Forthcoming events: Young People & Sexual Health – Engagement through partnership
Join us for the Spring sexual health network event in May.
Young people deserve access to quality education, services and support around sex and relationships. The challenges young people face now in relation to sex, identity and sexuality are complex and far reaching and exist in both on-line and off-line spaces. Within the digital word sexting, porn, toxic ideologies, online grooming and bullying all impact our young people’s mental and sexual health and wellbeing. Whilst unplanned pregnancies, harms relating to relationship abuse, and sexuality transmitted infections continue to disproportionally impact on young people.
Young people from across Derbyshire have told us they value information advice and support from professionals who feel comfortable and confident in talking about sex and relationships.
We believe that by working together we can help support of young people to navigate the challenges they face, and to make healthy, positive choices in relation to their sexual health and wellbeing.
The Sexual Health Network events are hosted by Integrated Sexual Health Services who offer a range of services for young people across Derbyshire and Derby City.
