Latest News
The Cumbria and Lancashire Sexual Health Networks acknowledge the need to equip staff from the NHS and partner organisations with the up to date information and knowledge needed to support the promotion of positive sexual health for all.
As part of this skills and knowledge development the Networks are keen to identify news articles and items of interest from across all sectors to help share good practice and inform Cumbria and Lancashire developments.
If you or your colleagues would like to see specific news items or articles appear on the website please use the contacts section to forward any suggestions or comments.
These can be regular news items, updates or simply interesting one off snippets or alternatively you may have come across a useful news source that would be good to share with colleagues.
