The Local Government Association (LGA) today warned that sexual health services are at 'tipping point' as significant increases in demand have coincided with dramatic cuts in the public health budget.

NAT’s recently published data from FOI requests to all UK local authorities, shows that HIV prevention services are also suffering hugely as a result of these cuts to the public health budget. In areas with a high prevalence of HIV, NAT found that funding for prevention was down by almost a third in just two years.
