Here are the details of our upcoming training courses.
23rd May 2017 - Working with Chemsex
Background:
Research indicates higher levels of substance use by gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) than the population as a whole. Emerging evidence from services working with this group indicates growing trends of chemsex - sexualised drug use, injecting, and other harms associated with newer drugs and sexual behaviour. New HIV infections amongst MSM in London grew by over 20% in the last year, with concerns about the link between drug use and HIV risk.
Aim:
The course aims to raise awareness of chemsex, including emerging drug trends; it will explore drug use in a sexualised context by MSM and introduce strategies and techniques for reducing sexual risk and drug-related harm.
