Trade Sexual Health is a health and sexual health charity, providing free, confidential health advice, information, services and support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans (LGBT) communities of Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland, we also work with all communities that are disproportionately impacted by HIV.
We offer a range of services including information and support on sexual health and HIV; one-to-one emotional and practical support; support around sexuality, gender, relationships and 'coming out'; rapid HIV testing; community based sexual health clinics; safer-sex packs; social and support groups; outreach services, and a fully qualified counselling service.
We have always aimed to break down barriers to accessing health services, reduce isolation, stigma and discrimination, and encourage or enable LGB&T people from diverse backgrounds to share in the life of the whole community.
We also provide sexual heath advice and testing for 'new arrivals' in Leicester - whether they have moved to the UK for work, to join their family, as asylum-seekers, or international students.
