In recognition of Youth Mental Health Day on Saturday 18 September, we’re highlighting the four ways young people can access mental health support in their local area.
Young people in Lambeth and across south east London can get a wide range of free mental health and wellbeing support at school, their GP, online and in community centres.
Getting tested for STIs and HIV has never been easier. Whether you prefer to test at home, visit your GP, attend a sexual health clinic or access community outreach services, there are a range of free and confidential options available to Lambeth residents.
Events held in Lambeth and across London have helped hundreds of Black women access free health checks, advice and HIV testing through Glam Squad events, many for the first time, leaving them better informed, confident and empowered to take control of their health.
Lambeth’s revised sexual health strategy prioritises access, prevention, and inclusion. The new five-year sexual and reproductive health & HIV strategy represents a significant advancement toward improving population health outcomes. Its objectives include addressing increasing demand for services, ensuring sustainable funding, and reducing disparities in sexual health.
