Signposting

As a student run society, we are focused on campaigning, educating and fundraising in regard to reproductive rights, working to break the stigma of abortion and sexual health on campus.

However, it’s vital to recognise that these issues are not just abstract concepts. Students in particular may find themselves in particular need of resources and signposting, and with one in three women having an abortion in their lifetime, we want to ensure you have access to the care you might need.

Free condoms are available via Umbrella Health in both the Guild of Students, Selly Oak Pharmacy, and the Whittall Street Clinic in the city centre.
