Brook Dudley – Integrated sexual health service

We’ve teamed up with SH:24 to bring you quick and easy at-home testing for STIs.
If you’re over 16 years old, live in Dudley and don’t have symptoms of an STI, you can order an test kit online now.
Make sure you use your correct details to order your test else you may not receive your results or we may have to ask for ID.
Please note: You can only order one test every three months so make sure you return your kit and that it’s been at least two weeks since sex without a condom to make sure it’s an accurate result. If you need tests more frequently, you can visit one of our clinics.
Order an STI home test through the SH:24 website by creating an account and answering some questions.
Receive your testing kit in the post and complete it.
Return your test in the post as soon as possible after completing it.
Within a few days you’ll get a text from SH:24 letting you know your results are ready to view in your account.
Both testing and treatment are free for eligible clients. Please be aware that SH:24 may need to speak to you about your test order or results. For information about how they use your data, please read their privacy policy.
If you need treatment or further testing that needs to be done in-person, you will be sent information about booking an appointment and one of our friendly team may try calling you.
What if I live outside Dudley?
If you have symptoms of an STI, don’t order an online test. Instead come to a walk-in clinic or phone us on 01384 881830
Get in touch with the clinic. Our friendly team will advise if you need to get tested and book you an appointment if needed. In some cases, we may fast-track you into treatment. Phone us on 01384 881830.
Don’t panic, most infections are easily treated, and getting tested is free and confidential.
If you tested through on postal kit, you will get a text from SH:24 telling you that your results are available to view by logging into your account on their website.
If you tested in clinic you will get a call or text from a member of the Brook team.
Usually results come through within a few days.
If you completed an online test but you haven’t received a text and your results aren’t available in your SH:24 account and you sent your test over 10 days ago, contact SH:24: sh24.org.uk/contact-us
If your test was done in clinic and you haven’t received your results 10 days later, please ring the clinic and we can look into it.
Through SH:24 you can test for:
If you’d like to test for anything else, this would need to be carried out in clinic.
If you’ve had sex without a condom, it’s best to wait 6-7 weeks if you don’t have symptoms before you test. This is because it can take two weeks for chlamydia and gonorrhoea to show up on tests and 6-7 weeks for HIV. If you test before then, the test may not pick up on any STIs that you could have.
If you do test positive for an STI, it’s always best to let your sexual partner(s) know so they can also get tested. We can support you to do this anonymously.
If your local council is not Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, you cannot order a test kit through Brook.
