PASH Project

Peer Activities in Sexual Health

The PASH young people’s peer education project is made up of young volunteers (aged 16-20 years) who deliver sexual health information and education to young people in Sheffield schools, colleges and other youth/community settings. Once trained, volunteers get involved in the following activities:

• Helping to run sexual health information stalls within school/college and other community settings
• Helping to run chlamydia and gonorrhoea screening stalls within a variety of young people’s venues
• Delivering sexual health promotion sessions within young people’s venues

Potential volunteers need to:

• Be aged between 16 and 20 years

• Once trained, have some daytime availability (Monday to Friday) and be available for volunteering for one year
