Accessing and improving sexual health and relationships services in North Lincolnshire

Healthwatch North Lincolnshire and Youth Healthwatch North Lincolnshire undertook a project on young people’s views of sexual health information and services in order to help direct and create content which is more targeted and suited to the requirements of people aged fourteen to twenty five in North Lincolnshire.  They undertook a survey.

They found that online methods of communicating resources are currently used the most and are preferred. Education in schools also scores highly which shows this is still necessary and wanted by young people. The results show that young people would like to see more information in health settings such as GP practices and sexual health clinics.

The report contains four recommendations about access to and content of information about sexual health and relationships.
