As of March 31, 2026, after two decades of service, the TAZ clinic at Millennium Centre will be closing its doors. While we feel a sense of sadness about this transition, we are eager to assist our colleagues at the GUM clinic at St Helens Hospital in providing a dedicated clinic for young people. Additionally, we are thrilled to introduce our community hubs, which will enable us to deliver aspects of our service directly within the community. Please keep tuned for location announcements!

Have you recently found out that your partner tested positive for an STI? We understand that hearing such news about your partner can be quite surprising! We’re here to support you, and it’s important to recognise the value of this information. It helps you get tested and seek treatment if needed. Remember, if your partner hadn't shared this with you, you might have unknowingly contracted an STI, which could lead to long-term health issues. So, don’t worry—just visit a clinic or give us a call, and that STI will soon be just a memory.

Squeezing into those shoes that are a little too small may lead to sore feet. But using the wrong-sized condom could lead to the condom falling off, ripping, or even bursting! An unreliable condom could result in an STI or unintended pregnancy. Make sure your condom fits!

Our service is strictly confidential for those aged 13 and over. We do not inform parents, or anyone else, that you have tested or your results. The only exception is we feel you, or someone else, is at risk of being harmed. If we suspect this, we will always tell you if we need to let anyone else know first. Our records are also separate from other healthcare records, so even your GP cannot see your sexual health records including results.

Oops! It seems some of our buzzers have gone on an unplanned adventure. If one of them accidentally hitched a ride home with you, we’d be ever so grateful if you could return it to the St. Helens Sexual Health Clinic.
