We offer a wide range of expert sexual health services from our clinics in Glenorchy, Launceston, and Burnie.
Today we honour the amazing contributions of our volunteer Board who selflessly dedicate their time and talents to support our purpose of enabling choices that improve the reproductive and sexual health of the Tasmanian community. Happy International Volunteers Day!

Today, Dec 1 is World AIDS Day.
In Australia, it is a day for the community to:
• show their support for people living with HIV
• raise awareness about prevention, treatment and care
• eliminate stigma and discrimination around HIV
• remember people who have died of AIDS-related illnesses.
Today in Australia:
• People living with HIV can get medication that allows them to live a healthy, long life.
• People living with HIV who take antiretroviral treatment can supress their viral load and have no risk of transmitting the infection to a sexual partner.
• People can take preventive medication that removes the risk of getting HIV through sexual activity.
• People can quickly access medications that prevents HIV infection if exposed to the virus.
• We have safer-sex initiatives and programs to reduce the risk of harm from injecting drugs.
But not everyone knows this.
World AIDS Day is a way to increase awareness and make our collective future better.
