Sexual Health
Sexual Health Services for Merton Residents
It can be really difficult to talk about sex but it is very important to find out about contraception and consent so you can make the right choices.
Everyone has questions or worries about sex and it’s normal to feel like this. You should be able to ask whatever you want and not be embarrassed.
This section will provide you with information on healthy relationships, consent, contraception, sexually transmitted disease and where you can get confidential help and support.
