RISE SURVEY 5: SEXUAL HEALTH

The coronavirus pandemic has meant that many sexual health services across Scotland have had to operate in very different ways, often having to prioritise emergencies.

This has happened at a time when many women have had no other option but to continue seeing clients face-to-face throughout the pandemic, so access to appropriate and reliable sexual health care is crucial. Through this survey, we want to learn more about how the pandemic may be affecting your ability to access sexual health care and what you think services, local authorities, and the Government should be doing to ensure the sexual health and wellbeing of women who sell/exchange sex or images is a priority.

Your participation in this survey is voluntary and completely anonymous. We do not record or store any personal or identifying information. All responses are confidential and will only be accessed by Anna (CLiCK Development Worker) and Shannon (CLiCK Resource and Information Officer). The results of this survey will be used to inform discussions on Click Cast – our monthly podcast series – and will also be used to directly inform specialist services, mainstream services, and decision makers of the needs of women who sell/exchange sex or images in Scotland. Anonymised responses may also be used on CLiCK social media and in training materials.

If you have any questions about the above, please get in touch
