All our staff are happy to take your questions or point you in the best direction of who you can speak to, however, if you’d like to have a more in-depth conversation, you can speak to a sexual health adviser. 

Sexual health advisers are there for you when you: 

  • have been diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection (STI) 
  • are concerned about your sexual health 
  • are undergoing tests or treatment 
  • want to discuss issues of sexuality and sexual identity 
  • have questions about safer sex, contraception, pregnancy, STIs and HIV
  • need support after assault or violence. 

To speak to a sexual health adviser, please call the clinic.

Sexual assault  

If you have been assaulted, please do not be afraid to get help.  

In the first instance, we recommend contacting a sexual assault referral centre such as The Swindon and Wiltshire Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC).

If you would prefer to talk to a member of our team, we will always be happy to support you.  

We can help you with testing, emergency contraception, pregnancy testing, PEP, Hepatitis B vaccinations and emotional support and guidance. Please note that our clinics are unable to perform forensic examinations -  this would be via a SARC.
