  • FREE Home Testing

    You can order some STI testing kits, such as a Chlamydia test, online and take the test at home, then send it off to get the result. Chlamydia is the most common sexually-transmitted infection in the UK, and around one in 12 young people are infected.

    Many people don’t even know that they’ve got Chlamydia as it can show little or no symptoms, which is why it’s important to get tested every six months or when you change sexual partners. Please note some kits may only be free in some postcodes.
