    "Working With a Holistic Model of Sexual Health

    Our holistic model of working acknowledges the interplay between a variety of factors in constructing and supporting people's sexual health. These include political, social and cultural factors and health inequalities, as well as issues relating to individual experience, emotions, sexuality, sensuality and spirituality. Our approach affirms peoples right to sex, which is consensual, mutual and equal, and the importance of pleasure, intimacy, desire, love and fulfilling relationships.

    Within the wider aim of working towards sexual health for all, our specific objectives include:
    • reducing unintended teenage pregnancies
    • the prevention of HIV and other Sexually Transmitted Infections (STI's)
    • the promotion of positive and mutually satisfying relationships
    • the provision of excellent Sex and Relationships Education
  • We are also committed to developing a more positive and affirming overall culture for sexual health, and an environment in which this is seen as a basic human right."
