Title: Sex Worker sexual health drop-in service in York
Post by: cjmesmac on 20 August 2018, 07:02:48 pm
Hi all,

My name is Cj and I work for Yorkshire MESMAC in York and North Yorkshire.
This is just a quick post to let you know about our free and confidential sexual health drop-in service for sex workers which takes place every month.

At the drop-in we can offer:
- instant result HIV testing
- full screening by a sexual health nurse from the local GUM
- access to hepatitis vaccinations
- free condoms and lube
- info on PEP and PrEP
- support and other info
- reporting service through National Ugly Mugs
- teas and coffees
- free buffet lunch!

It takes place at our offices on the first Friday of each month from 11am - 1pm. We're based just off the city centre at Marygate Lane, YO30 7BJ. Parking is usually available outside too.

The sessions are very friendly, relaxed and non-judgmental -  and are a good chance to chat informally to other workers in the area too.
Our session is open to sex workers of all genders.

Our next sessions will be Friday 7th September, Friday 5th October and Friday 2nd November.
If you'd like any more info feel free to get in touch :)

Thanks!
