ABOUT SEXPRESSION:UK ABOUT SEXPRESSION:UK ABOUT SEXPRESSION:UK

Since forming in 2000, Sexpression members from over 15 university branches have been delivering teaching to 11-18-year olds in schools and community groups providing informative, open and engaging relationships, sex and health education.

Although originally founded by a group of medical students at University College London, Sexpression:UK has since expanded to train volunteers from all university courses, in order to capture the diverse perspectives that these students can offer.

OUR VALUES

INFORMAL

Young people learn best and are more likely to make informed decisions about sex and relationships if they participate in discussions rather than being lectured.

COMPREHENSIVE

Young people should be informed about all aspects of their sexual and reproductive health in order for them to live happy and healthy lives.

NEAR-PEER

Because university students are closer in age to the young people than their teachers and parents our near-peer teaching encourages young people to participate.

EMPOWERING

Young people's individual beliefs are respected, and our teaching helps young people to act on them. We also encourage young people to respect the beliefs of others.

OUR CORE OFFER

At Sexpression:UK, we offer a range of programmes designed to promote healthy relationships, consent, and sexual well-being.

Our programmes are tailored to different age groups and cover a wide array of topics to ensure that everyone has access to accurate and inclusive information.

Our workshops are:

Informed by the most recent RSHE Government guidance specific to England, Scotland and Wales alongside guidance from PSHE Association, Sex Education Forum and UNESCO technical guidance on comprehensive sexuality education.
LGBTQ+ inclusive, age appropriate and accessible to young people.
Flexible to school timetables and complement the existing RSE provision, tailor made for school requirements.
