Sexual Health 101 Part One

Health, MPOX, Sexual Health, Thorne Harbour Health (VAC)

In the first of this sexual health 101 series, we chat with Rhian Graco-Ilves, Peer Educator at Thorne Harbour Health.

Rhian talks us through Appreach and Outreach, Thorne Harbour’s program that places sexual health experts on apps and in sex-on-premises venues.

These ‘sexperts’ give practical sexual health tips to other community members.

Listen in and learn how to put pleasure first when you’re planning safe sex.
