Diolch yn Fawr to Christian from @BrookCymru for some great sessions about period dignity and puberty with the learners today. Very well done to all the boys for their sensible and mature attitudes. Great job guys 👍 (All classes are taking part soon thanks to @CdfHealthySch)

Mae ein hadroddiad newydd yn galw i wella'r ffyrdd yr ydym yn addysgu pobl ifanc am reoli eu hiechyd rhywiol. Mae angen i wersi fod yn fwy cynhwysol, cynhwysfawr ac amserol, a rhoi'r sgiliau i bobl ifanc asesu'n feirniadol yr hyn a welant ar-lein. brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
Our new EASY report is a call for action to improve the ways we educate young people about sexual health. Lessons need to be inclusive, comprehensive & timely & also provide the skills to critically assess content on social media & identify misinformation. brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
Ymgysylltom gyda 2,700+ o bobl ifanc am eu hagwedd a'u profiadau condomau a dulliau atal cenhedlu. Maent eisiau ACRh cynhwysfawr, cynhwysol ledled yr ysgol uwchradd i wneud dewisiadau gwybodus, iach am atal cenhedlu, condomau ac atal STI. brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
We surveyed 2,700+ young people about attitudes & experiences of condoms & contraception. They want comprehensive, inclusive RSE throughout secondary school to make informed, healthy choices about contraception, condoms, & STI prevention. Read our report⬇️ brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
Darllennwch yr adroddiad EASY brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
Mae'r argymhellion yn galw am fwy o dryloywder gwybodaeth iechyd rhywiol a rennir ar-lein, bod y wybodaeth yn amserol a chynhwysol, a'r angen i weithio gyda chlinigwyr i nodi rhwystrau sy'n atal pobl ifanc rhag teimlo eu bod yn cael eu clywed.
Er mwyn ein helpu i ddeall y stori y tu ôl i rywfaint o'r data hwn, gwnaethom gynnal ymchwil newydd. Mae addysg, mynediad, stigma a phobl ifanc (EASY), yn archwilio agweddau pobl ifanc at gondomau, atal cenhedlu ac iechyd rhywiol.
Ar yr un pryd, mae pobl ifanc yn adrodd nad yw'r ACRh y maent yn ei dderbyn yn yr ysgol bob amser yn gynhwysfawr nac yn amserol, ac mae pobl ifanc LHDT+ yn teimlo'n arbennig o anfodlon â'r wybodaeth a'r gefnogaeth y maent yn eu derbyn.
Mae data cenedlaethol yn dangos cynnydd pryderus mewn cyfraddau STI, yn ogystal â gostyngiad yn nifer y bobl ifanc 16-24 oed sy'n cael mynediad at atal cenhedlu a chynnydd yn y defnydd o atal cenhedlu brys. Mae hyn yn rhoi mwy o alw ar wasanaethau iechyd rhywiol sydd o dan bwysau
Yn ein hymchwil ddiweddaraf gyda mwy na 2,700 o bobl ifanc (16-24), dywedodd un pumed wrthym nad oeddent byth yn defnyddio condomau yn ystod rhyw treiddiol ac nad oedd 49% yn gwybod ble i gael mynediad i gondomau am ddim. brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…
In our latest research with more than 2,700 young people (16-24), one fifth told us they never use condoms during penetrative sex and 49% did not know where to access free condoms brook.org.uk/campaigns/easy-…

In 2022, 53% of people accessing Brook’s services said they didn’t use a condom. Meanwhile data from @UKHSA shows that STI rates are soaring, with a 50.3% increase in Gonorrhoea diagnoses.
That's why we've launched our new #SaferSexRules campaign: brook.org.uk/safer-sex
