Our outreach team delivers sexual health education and support as well distributing free condoms and STI screens to individuals and organisations across the community.

We attend festivals, Pride events, schools, colleges and city/town centre venues across Derbyshire.

We have a much loved sexual health outreach van which means we can deliver flexible and responsive outreach sessions, including on board STI / HIV screening and condom distribution.

You will be responsible for co-ordinating the use of this within the team.

Our outreach is continually evolving and responding to the needs of our communities, and as lead for this service, you will have a role in shaping this for the future.
