Trans and Non-Binary Outreach Testing

We welcome trans and non-binary people to all of our sexual health services, but if you would prefer to attend a service specifically for trans and non-binary people, we also run a dedicated community-based clinic at LGBT Health and Wellbeing in Leith. This clinic offers:

• Asymptomatic STI testing

• Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV

• Contraception

• Cervical screening (smear tests)

You’ll be able to access care in a relaxed, supportive, affirming environment with staff experienced in trans and non-binary healthcare.
