Given a 21st-century makeover and retitled Sexplanation! it retains its board game format that has been shown to open up honest, frank and informative discussions around sex and relationships.
The new version has been updated and trialled with the help of young people themselves and support from leading sexual health advice agency Brook.'
Fiona Blacke, chief executive of The National Youth Agency, said: "There have been welcome changes and a rapid pace of development in policy and practice around young people's sexual health over the last decade.
However, many challenges remain in this area. There is still a huge demand from young people for full and frank discussion with robust information from a trusted adult to help them make positive choices about their sexual health and activity.
"Being young and developing confidence in yourself and your sexuality is exciting. It can also be scary without the right education and support. The need to equip young people with the skills to navigate their relationships and take responsibility for their sexual wellbeing is as important now as it has ever been."
Suitable for young people aged 11 and over Sexplanation! is ideal for youth groups. Indeed, one local authority has ordered 65 copies prior to the launch.
The game costs £40 plus £6 post and packaging and is available from The National Youth Agency.
