The NHS 10-Year Plan puts digital, prevention & community care at the heart of the future.

At LSHP, we’ve been on that path since 2018 - over 1M Londoners use SHL.UK annually, accessing care that’s personalised, and tech-enabled.

New UKHSA data shows STI consultations rose 6% in London in 2023. Testing is up, positivity steady. Digital services like SHL.UK are key to meeting demand. We need smart investment, hybrid care, and strong prevention to keep Londoners healthy. #SexualHealth #DigitalHealth

A harrowing story, one that will be repeated until we decriminalise abortion.

If reproductive rights do not maintain a forward momentum they will snap back, the politically opportunist have abortion restrictions in their sights.
Nikki Packer is a brave and brilliant woman who has been through absolute hell.

This is her story; it’s not one she ever wanted to be telling, but she hopes that by doing so, no other woman will have to go through what she did:

Terrible news!
Trinidad and Tobago’s Court of Appeal has overturned the 2018 ruling that ‘buggery laws’ infringe human rights and have reinstated this homophobic colonial era law.
This is an attack on the sexual freedom of gay and straight people.

As Trinidad & Tobago’s Court of Appeal reverses buggery law ruling, does the colonial grip persist?
Two of the three Appeal Court judges found that the outdated "buggery" law must remain on the statute books on the grounds that it is a “saved law.”

Every new utterance from Justin Welby demonstrates how unfit he was for his office. I hope he burns in the fires of hell for all eternity over his moral failure to protect children and for his active enablement of the sexual abuse of children.
