Protecting sexual health services

FPA is campaigning to remind Government of the importance of vital sexual health services.

As part of our commitment to protecting the nation’s sexual health we're calling for services to be improved and expanded rather than cut back.

We've joined forces with fellow sexual health charities Brook, Terrence Higgins Trust and MedFASH to ask the Government to keep sexual health a priority.
