Love Is In The Air !

So, V Day has been and gone! I hope you all spent the day feeling loved up and super happy!

Yesterday was a busy day for 'No Risks'; we kicked the day off with a Valentines Special at Wellington Children's Centre having a chat and a cuppa with the Breastfeeding Support Group, the heart stress relievers went down a storm, as did the packets of Love Hearts which were consumed by the lovely little ones who had accompanied their mums to the group yesterday!

After Wellington we moved on to Infobar in Ipswich, to work in partnership with the lovely lot at Catch22. We set the stand up with all of our lovely Valentines goodies and waited for the crowds... Unfortunately it was a bit of a quiet day, everyone was clearly off woo-ing their girlfriends/boyfriends, but we did chat to a few people who popped in and 3 wonderful young people registered for the C-Card which gives them access to free condoms in Suffolk, AND free Chlamydia testing. We also gave out some very cool heart shaped condoms to celebrate V Day!

Later in the evening our Level 1 network volunteers visited Rileys Snooker Hall in Ipswich for a Speed Dating event! Sadly, everyone seemed to be out enjoying themselves elsewhere and it was a particularly quiet 'do', however they did raise some awareness to those who were there and managed to do some Chlamydia screening too - Nice work Matt & Roberta :)

All in all it was a great day to raise awareness of safe sex and it was lovely to meet some new faces.. Whatever you were doing this Valentines Day I hope it made you smile :)
