Reviewing Brook's future

At Brook we know that there are still many hundreds of thousands of young people who need better sexual health advice and services across the UK. Brook has decided to review the way the organisation is set up and governed in order to support many more young people. The review is all about creating a Brook which is:

Bigger – reaching more young people
Bolder – a louder voice with wider influence
Better – having a greater impact on all young people’s sexual health

For further information on the review and to follow the blog to see how things are going please visit www.brook.org.uk/review.

Advertising condoms on TV – what young people think

The Broadcast Committee on Advertising (BCAP) – Part of the Advertising Standards Authority – have suggested in their public consultation to update advertising guidelines around condoms. In 2007 young people involved in a peer research project at Brook decided to survey their peers about condom advertising on TV which has informed the suggested changes.

Have fun, be careful

Brook has launched a new version of our Have fun, be careful poster to remind young people that if they are planning a night out that might include sex to make sure they're ready and that they really want it.

The poster reminds young people that if they do decide to have sex to use condoms to protect against unplanned pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections and advises them to contact the Ask Brook confidential helpline (0808 802 1234) for advice, support and information about all aspects of sexual health.
