The Elephant in the Room
The NHS North East and North Cumbria Integrated Care Board (ICB), in partnership with UKHSA, OHID, Directors of Public Health and public health teams, across all our region’s local authorities have developed the ‘Elephant in the Room’ campaign. Its aim is to raise awareness of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), promote confidential and FREE sexual health advice and services, and encourage safer sexual health behaviours among young people.
