Sexual Health Ambassador Training

Become an ambassador for your community today.

The Sexual Health Ambassador training is delivered by our Outreach Health Promotion Officer Nina. The training invites people from migrant and new communities – including those living in Direct Provision, IPAS centres, and recently arrived groups such as Ukrainians – to become Sexual Health Ambassadors.

The training aims to update your sexual health knowledge, develop your facilitation and communication skills, and provide you with health promotion skills while connecting with like-minded people.

At the end of the training, you will receive a certificate and you also have the opportunity to volunteer alongside Nina with some of the outreach sexual health promotion programmes. This will enable you to gain experience and give back to your community.
