Sexual Health Week 2026

14 to 20 September 2026

In today's increasingly digital world, staying in touch is easier than ever. Yet many people continue to experience loneliness, isolation and a sense of disconnection from others and themselves.

This year's Sexual Health Week, is centred around the theme "Let's Connect", highlighting the important role meaningful connections play in supporting our health, wellbeing and relationships.

Throughout the week, Leeds Sexual Health will be sharing information, advice and resources designed to help people build healthier, more positive connections. We'll explore how effective communication can strengthen romantic, sexual and platonic relationships, while also encouraging people to connect with their own emotions, needs and bodies.

The campaign will also focus on the value of community and belonging, recognising how strong support networks can help challenge stigma, reduce health inequalities and create safer, more inclusive spaces for everyone.

Whether you're strengthening existing relationships, making new connections or taking time to reconnect with yourself, Sexual Health Week 2026 offers an opportunity to reflect on what meaningful connection means to you and how it can positively influence your overall wellbeing.

Follow Leeds Sexual Health throughout the week for expert advice, practical tips and inspiring stories that celebrate the power of connection and its impact on sexual health and wellbeing.
