Webinar - Sexual Health and Wellness for LGBT+, MSM and WSW - 22 June
About this event
Throughout Pride month, Public Health England Yorkshire and Humber Centre are hosting a series of webinars which will explore the disproportionately poorer health outcomes experienced by Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT+) people across the life course.
These webinars will provide an opportunity to showcase best practice and foster new ways of working to address and improve LGBT+ health inequalities throughout the region.
These events are open to professionals from across the health, social care and VCSE sectors with a responsibility for addressing LGBT+ health inequalities, including Local Authorities, primary care services, policy makers, commissioners and NHS trusts.
The third webinar in the LGBT+ series will highlight the disproportionately higher rates of sexually transmitted diseases reported in LGBT+ populations, explore sexualised drug use and chemsex as an emerging public health issue and will share guidance and screening considerations specific to LGBT+ individuals aimed at addressing LGBT+ sexual health inequalities locally.
Speakers
Georgina Wilkinson, Sexual Health Facilitator, Public Health England, Yorkshire and Humber Centre
