Improve your local services

SHout Loud (Sexual Health Out Loud), is a new website helping you have a say about sexual health, contraceptive and HIV services in England.

More and more decisions about health services are now taken at a local level. Decision-makers have to listen to local communities when making those decisions. This makes the voice of the public more important than ever. You can have a huge impact on changing and improving sexual health, contraceptive and HIV services locally. SHout Loud helps you to affect local decisions and improve sexual health in your community.

SHout Loud is a collaborative project between AHPN, Brook, fpa, MedFASH, National AIDS Trust (NAT) and Terrence Higgins Trust (THT). The website features an interactive map, which you can use to access local sexual health, HIV and teenage pregnancy statistics, find out about local NHS and Local Authority plans and targets related to sexual health, and take action to improve sexual heath in your area by contacting local decision-makers using our ‘Take Action’ button.

We are developing guides to local decision-making and campaigning, and developing regional pages where people can share local stories, news and campaigns.

Please visit www.shoutloud.org.uk to find out about the state of sexual health in your area, and take action by contacting key decision-makers. You can also take our survey to help us find out how much people know about healthcare and local decision-making, and be in with a chance of winning a £20 Amazon voucher.

Together, we can improve sexual health in your community.
