Withington Pride: A Call Out for Q***r, Transgender and Intersex People of Colour
Coconut is a facilitated discussion about how systemic racism subtly embeds itself in the daily lives of members of the global majority, exploring the often-unseen ways individuals internalise and uphold oppressive norms. The discussion explores these themes of 'othering' through the lens of food, culture and community. They are inviting QTIPOC* to attend a workshop, which aims to bring people together to explore the intersections of othering as q***r and Global Majority folk, find connections, solace and a shared understanding.

New Gonorrhoea Vaccine Now Available in Greater Manchester! πŸ’‰

From 1st August, eligible people in Greater Manchester can get the MenB vaccine (Bexsero) to help protect against gonorrhoea. This is part of a world-first programme tackling rising STI rates.

πŸ“ˆ Gonorrhoea cases are at record highs, but two doses of the MenB vaccine can reduce your risk by up to 40% and help slow the spread of antibiotic-resistant strains.

βœ… Who’s eligible?

Gay & bisexual men with multiple partners in the last 3 months

Anyone recently diagnosed with an STI

Others at similar high risk

πŸ“ Get vaccinated at your local sexual health clinic – appointments may be needed.

πŸ›‘οΈ Condoms are still essential for full protection. You may also be offered vaccines for mpox, hepatitis A & B, and HPV at the same time.

For more information about the MenB vaccination against gonorrhoea visit: https://gmintegratedcare.org.uk/menb-vaccination-against-gonorrhoea/

09/07/2025

From July, younger women (aged 25 to 49) who test negative for HPV, meaning they are at very low risk of cervical cancer over the next 10 years, will safely be invited every 5 years rather than every 3, in line with major clinical evidence.
This change is based on strong evidence showing that people without HPV are at very low risk of cervical cancer.

If you missed your last one, book an appointment with your GP
