About You Before Two
You Before Two was a UK charity founded by Dr Rebecca Foljambe.
It was created to encourage all young men and women to respect and protect themselves (the ‘you’), before considering entering into a serious relationship or having a baby (the ‘two’). Read more about You Before Two.
Family Planning Association (FPA) and continuing the You Before Two legacy
Although the You Before Two charity has now closed – the FPA is continuing You Before Two’s great work.
We are giving discounts on Sexual Health Essentials to schools that need more help.
When you buy a Sexual Health Essentials membership – we’ll ask “What percentage of children in your school get free school meals?”
We will apply a discount to schools where a high proportion of students get free meals.
Testimonials
I think the films are perfectly pitched in duration, content & delivery. They will definitely be a useful tool with our young people.
These films are the best I have seen in 23 years of teaching, it is vital we get something of this quality out to all the students we can. So many students come to us with so many misconceptions.
After lockdown so many will have missed vital PSHE coverage and will have even more misconceptions.
