An Agony Aunt

“I know when I link to information on BISH that it will be straightforward, reassuring, and give useful ideas…”

“As an Agony Aunt I recommend BISH to readers who need advice on sex and relationships. Some of these are teenagers who are not receiving adequate sex education at school. Some are parents who want to talk to their children about relationships in supportive and consent-focused ways, but are not sure where to begin. Still more are adults who may be from anywhere in the world, but they have one thing in common. They missed out on sex education in school and very often are living in a culture or community where advice either isn’t available, or it is assumed they should ‘just know’ about sex and relationships issues so feel they cannot ask for help. I know when I link to information on BISH that it will be straightforward, reassuring, and give useful ideas that people can use to think about their situation and find out more should they need it. That includes talking to parents, partners, healthcare workers, teachers or others who might be able to advise them. It helps me to know there is somewhere reliable to turn to, where I know so much thought is given to ensure messages are clear, accurate and accessible to all.”
