Our Values

We understand that accessing sexual health services for the first time can feel uncomfortable and daunting.

First and foremost, we always aim to give a friendly warm welcome to service users and make them feel comfortable and respected.

Our core values are knowledge, dedication, credibility, open-mindedness and diversity.

We hope be regarded as respectful, sensitive, adaptable, discreet, innovative, positive, informative and inclusive.
