Many students are heading off to university completely clueless about condoms. Survey results published by Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) and the National Union of Students (NUS) today show over a third of students thought latex condoms had holes in them large enough to allow HIV to pass through. More than one in ten didn’t know how to put a condom on properly and 16% thought that using two condoms at once was safer than using just one – it’s not.
New research released today shows that gay and bisexual men are more satisfied with sexual health services in England and Wales than they were in the late 1990s. Although it’s still difficult to get an appointment in many clinics, once through the door men are reporting that they are happier with the service they’re receiving.
Terrence Higgins Trust (THT) has been chosen for a 2007 / 08 Charity of the Year partnership by Charity People, a recruitment agency specialising in the charity and not for profit sectors. HIV and sexual health are traditionally not popular causes when organisations choose their ‘Charity of the Year’ and it’s the first partnership of this kind that THT has secured.
