STI Checks @ Townhouse
Jump to: Newest in thread
I am sure there may be some mixed views about this but I wanted to share anyway.
At Townhouse we work closely with the Terrance Higgins Trust to promote sexual health within the club. Well they have agreed to offer STI checks to members on Fri 17th Oct from 8pm!! They will be offering Chlamydia, Gonorrohea and HIV testing and you will have the option of a fastrack 20 min HIV test or a 2 day test.
THT will provide pre and post test counselling so you know exactly what the process is and what a positive result would mean. They are also giving out condoms on the day, but we do that anyway at Townhouse.
You don't have to be a member, you just need to be able to get yourself over to Townhouse Wirral at between 8 & 9pm. We do have an event on that night from 8.30pm but you will be tested/counselled in a private area away from the crowds. It's free, you don't need ID, you don't need to even be interested in the club. Literally anybody can come. Please tell your friends about this so people who want to be tested, can do so locally.
We are running these every month, so if you can't make it this time, I will post a new thread with the future dates when I have them
Vicky and Jim

Never been to a club but you have raised the image of them in my estimation.
You should be very proud of the stance you are taking here, well done and I hope the service is well utilised.

Starting to think there should be a Sticky for Listings in local areas for these, for reference.
Imagine, a maintained list for peoples reference, club based etc? |

It's easy enough to be honest, it's just taking the time to negotiate times with a provider and have a suitable private room! |

"Fantastic idea! The service was pulled around the Manchester club due to cuts!"
I don't understand why it was cut due to cuts when it can be provided for free y Terrence Higgins Trust?? If the clubs want to role this out, then they should give THT a call x |

Would you be ok with me mentioning your clinic in Blackpool on my adverts on other sites as we have members from the Blackpool area who could utilise this.

Totally agree. I remember the original Clubf owners were based in sunderland with a very popular club before he moved to Stanley. A sexual health advisor from our local GUM clinic visited quite regular to discuss relationship issues/sexual health concerns etc, but things have progressed since 7 years back, and you guys are doing exactly the right thing. Your food bank is also a really good idea (just noticed that on the forums). You guys actually don't realise your making a very positive move towards integrating us (clubs and the lifestyle) into everyday society. things are changing socially and you seem to be paving the way for the rest of us. keep it up |

That is nice of you to say, thank you! It really is easy for other clubs to run an sti clinic through Terrence Higgins, it just takes time, discussion & negotiation..if anyone wants some help/info to do this, just let me know.
As for the food bank...well I've been wanting to do something for our local community for ages but simple for members & seemed to be the best option with fast results which stay in the local area
Again thank you xx |
