Organisation: Bracknell Forest Council - Sandhurst Bus Project
Issue: Raising awareness of sexual health issues among young Travellers
The situation: Bracknell Forest detached youth work team took the info-active bus to Sandhurst to work closely with young Travellers and encourage them to be healthy and explore sexual health issues. The young people began to engage in a series of frank discussions that explored their sexual behaviour and the consequences of such activity.
What children and young people said: "It's easy to get information (about safe sex and contraception) and talk to people because the bus comes to us so we don't have to go to them." (Mandy, 15)
