Lambeth, Southwark, Lewisham, Bromley, and Bexley have some of the most significant sexual health inequalities in London, marked by high rates of HIV and STIs, particularly among young people, MSM, and BME communities. Following user feedback, a major revamp of the region’s Find Sexual Health website aims to improve access to services, providing timely and efficient support to help bridge these gaps.
During HIV Testing Week – 10-16 February – Lambeth is joining others to encourage uptake of testing for HIV, share its benefits, and signpost residents to how they can get free and confidential testing.
Though fewer people are being diagnosed with HIV, late diagnoses remain an issue, and some individuals are still unaware they have the virus.
