Valentine's Day

Hello all,

Whether you're in a relationship or single, it's going to be impossible to ignore the Valentine's Day paraphernalia in the coming days.  Although many people find this day depressing (and some may say it's over commercialised); we're going to try to use it for the advancement of safe sex (and of course to make people happy).

We've already been to West Suffolk College today, where we saw mainly young men - we were giving out boxer shorts that said "Cupid Ain't Stupid" in exchange for every completed Chlamydia test.  Being mainly boys, the students were not as forthcoming as they usually are in mixed-sex groups...until there were 20 of them in one place; then they all wanted to do a test!

We've decorated our stand with a loved-up them (look at our Facebook Page to see what I mean!)  We'll be giving away love hearts to everyone that comes to have a chat with us over the coming days - we're at Suffolk New College, Suffolk One, and University Campus Suffolk, during the week, and Bury Rugby Club on Saturday.  We'll also be back at West Suffolk College next week for their wellbeing event.

We'll let you know how we get on - whether the boxer shorts are a hit (we have girls ones too) - in the meantime, if your educated or working at any of these establishments, please come and see us; no matter what your age we'll be happy to talk to you; you might be surprised at what is available to you! 

Keep Safe x
