Brook talk 'Sexual Health' at tpm

Tpm have joined forces with Brook to offer learners a schedule of training, information advice and guidance on sexual health matters. Expert Brook advisors will deliver awareness-raising sessions to students throughout January, February and March. This pro-active health promotion initiative will culminate in Drop-in Surgeries operated by Brook at tpm on 15th 16th 17th and 18th March between 12.30 and 1.30 pm.

Brook is the only national voluntary provider of free and confidential sexual health advice and services specifically for young people under 25. It is a registered charity, with 40 years' experience of providing professional advice through specially trained doctors, nurses, counsellors, and outreach and information workers to over 200,000 young people each year.
