Sh:24 Description

What is SH: 24?
SH: 24 is a new way of accessing NHS sexual health services.

Who is the service for?
Like traditional NHS sexual health clinics, SH: 24 is for everyone.

But we really hope it will provide access to people most at risk and in need - particularly if you don’t currently use NHS clinics.

Over the next four years we will be further developing the service to include:

Sexual health advice
Emergency hormonal contraception
General contraception
Pregnancy tests
Information on treatment options

A bit more about us
SH: 24 is funded by Guy’s and St Thomas’ Charity during its four year development phase.

We work in partnership with Lambeth and Southwark Public Health Directorate and two local NHS Foundation trusts. We are also available in Essex, Medway, Telford & Wrekin, Shropshire, Herefordshire and Medway working in partnership with Provide and a team of other health providers and third sector organisations.

How are we designing SH: 24?
We are using a design-led approach which involves lots of user testing. We are building and testing the service in a number of phases.

We will only move to the next phase when we have learned from your feedback, adding more features as we go.

Phase one launched in March 2015 allowing people to:
