Gonorrhoea (MenB) vaccination

Gonorrhoea is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STI) in the UK and gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men have the highest risk of contracting it.

We’re offering the meningococcal group B (MenB) vaccine to help protect you against the gonorrhoea infection, as well as helping to prevent cases of meningitis and septicaemia caused by the meningococcal B bacteria.

You can check whether your eligible to receive the vaccine and book your appointment by calling us

MPOX (MVA) vaccination

Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men are also at a higher risk of exposure to MPOX (formally Monkeypox). This also applies to individuals with multiple sexual partners, those who attend sex-on-premises venues, or are involved in group sex activities.

The MVA vaccine helps to prevent and reduce the severity of MPOX (and smallpox) infections which can present as painful lesions on your skin.

If you’d benefit from the MVA vaccine, you can book an appointment by calling us
