The Sexual Health Star™ is designed specifically for work with young people around sexual health. It is a focused but holistic tool and covers relationships, attitudes towards risk taking, confidence as well as contraception and sexually transmitted infections.

The Sexual Health Star™ was developed with Brook, the sexual health charity for young people.

The Sexual Health Star™ covers five outcome areas:

1. Alcohol and drugs
2. Sexually transmitted infections
3. Contraception
4. Friends and relationships
5. Confidence to make the right choices

The Sexual Health Star™ is underpinned by a five-stage Journey of Change:

1. Not safe and taking risks
2. Wanting change
3. Trying to change
4. Mostly safe
5. Safe and confident – enjoying their sexuality without harm to themselves or others
