SEND Support

Welcome to our SEND Support page. Here at Luton Sexual Health (LSH), we provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment to support all of our clients. Our friendly staff are here to help and support you, as well as provide you with information and advice around safer sexual practices.

  • We offer a fast-track service for those with additional needs and disabilities. If this applies to you, please contact our SEND Outreach Lead, Sophie, on 07773110251. We can book you an appointment and ensure that your needs and requirements are met during your visit.
  • We understand that attending clinic for the first time can be overwhelming. Please visit our ‘What to expect in clinic’ page for more information.
  • Please also see our Easy Read document below that gives you information about what to expect when you attend clinic.
  • There is a quiet waiting room available if you prefer a quiet space to wait in. Please ask a member of our friendly reception team if you would like to use this room.
  • A member of the Outreach Team can meet with you before your appointment. We are here to talk before you attend your appointment and can offer ongoing support after your appointment.
  • We welcome carers and support staff to attend your appointment with you. Please bear in mind that they may be asked to wait in the waiting room whilst you have your appointment. This is to give you the opportunity to speak to one of our doctors or nurses confidentially.
  • Plan how to get to us by visiting our Find Us page.

 

Attending Clinic – Easy Read

 

If you are a professional currently working with someone who has an additional need and you think they could benefit from further support around safer sexual practice, please get in touch with our SEND Outreach Lead: sophie.dessauer@ldh.nhs.uk.
