Walk in Health Centre - VICTORY

Manifesto promise: "to promote the ongoing campaign for a sexual health clinic on campus or in Selly Oak".

I have mentioned a few times both in my blogs and my Guild Council reports my progress with this promise, and how I have been lobbying the PCT to address sexual health provisions for students at the University of Birmingham, either on campus or in Selly Oak.

The PCT have now officially announced the opening of a walk in centre in Selly Oak for June 2009!

This centre will operate 8am-8pm 7 days a week and provide GP and Nurse services, in addition to bookable apppointments for both registered and unregistered patients.
The centre will also offer sexual health services, including emergency contraception, referrals and testing.
