Our clinic is based at MASH, 94-96 Fairfield Street – around ten minutes’ walk from Manchester Piccadilly train station. 

MASH partners with the NHS but our clinic is run by MASH specifically for women who are sex working.

MASH is a confidential service. People often say it’s a very different experience to mainstream services and that it is friendly, non-judgemental.

  • We offer: a quick and simple full sexual health screening 
  • Preventative measures and advice as well as treatments for anything picked up in your screening

Meet Jen – MASH’ Sexual Health Nurse

“Hi, I’m Jen, MASH’s nurse. Although my role is overseen by the NHS, the clinic we offer at MASH is unique and run by us. We have a welcoming, private clinic room and I also visit women where they are at too. 

“I’ve been working in sexual health and with sex workers for many years and will do whatever I can to ensure everyone can access the screenings and treatments they need in an easy and stress-free way.  

“If you’re unsure about anything, please do text me on 07980 719155. I’m always happy to have a chat first and talk through everything you can expect. 

“People often tell me how friendly, welcoming and non-judgemental the MASH clinic is. Music to my ears! I can complete a full screening with you in a matter of minutes. 

“Everything can be at your pace and led by you.  

“Fun fact about me…when I worked in Styal Prison I had my own radio show called Jen’s Vaginal Dialogues. People seemed to love it! And it was a much better way to share my sexual health education than a wordy leaflet. Once people had heard me chatting away, they felt much more comfortable popping in for testing, advice and treatments.”  

What people say about the MASH Clinic 

“I cannot stress enough how helpful MASH is to me as a woman-aligned person sex working in Manchester. 

“Their STI testing is judgement-free which is amazing because I can ask questions of their lovely nurse that my GP wouldn’t be comfortable speaking to me about.  

“They’re trans and non-binary inclusive, relatively fast results AND they give out free condoms, offer needle exchange and more. 

“Before I found it I literally drove down to London to get tested.”

Suntem MASH

Timp de 30 de ani, MASH a fost alături de femeile care lucrează sexual sau se gândesc la asta, oferind sprijin fără discernământ pentru a îmbunătăți sănătatea, siguranța și bunăstarea.

Luăm MASH la femei în cazul în care acestea sunt la, oferind sprijin de la centrul nostru drop-in, camioneta noastră MASH, în centrul orașului Manchester, în saune și prin apeluri telefonice și vizite la domiciliu.

Femeile ne spun că MASH îi ajută să se simtă mai în siguranță, ascultați, împuterniciți și că, în multe cazuri, este un "colac de salvare".
