Playing It Safe.
The campaign is organised by the sexual health charity, Brook, and is aimed at raising awareness of sexual health in all areas; contraception options, sexual consent plus healthy relationships, and encourages everyone to be safe through empowerment.
Running from 11-17 September 2023, the week is an opportunity to talk on social media openly about sexual health and sharing of experiences – simply search for #SHW23
