Notice Title

Provision of a Postal STI Testing Service with Online Requesting

Notice Description

At present Luton Sexual Health provides integrated sexual health services across two sites, at the Luton and Dunstable Hospital and at the Luton Walk In Centre. Services are provided six days per week with extended opening hours, but further avenues are sought in order to make STI testing available to our local population. Luton Borough has a diverse population with high levels of deprivation, and it is hoped that an online service with postal testing will facilitate access to STI screening and treatment for those who find it difficult to attend sexual health services.
