fpa Sexual Health Week 2008 campaign for rights of people with learning disabilities

7/23/2008

For this year’s Sexual Health Week campaign (4-10 August) ‘It's My Right!’, IPPF member of UK, fpa shall focus on the rights of people with learning disabilities/difficulties to sex and relationships.

Over the last 15 years, fpa  has worked with some of the 1.5 million people in the UK estimated to have learning disabilities/difficulties, through community projects, learning resources and training for the professionals working alongside them.

As part of the campaign, fpa  has launched a new user-friendly interactive CD-ROM for people with learning disabilities/difficulties called 'All about us' which explores personal development and knowledge around sex, sexuality and relationships, as a self-study learning tool or with support from a parent, carer or professional.

In addition, fpa has developed a Sexual Health Week 2008 campaign pack to help professionals get involved in ‘It's My Right!’ including a stunning collection of posters from award winning photographer Marcus Lyon:
