One Stop Shop

If you work on a public sector health campaign, the chances are that someone else somewhere is working on the same issue. One Stop Shop offers health professionals a chance to share unpublished research and information on consumer knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and behaviour across a range of public health priorities.

Teen pregnancy: Qualitative research with teenage mothers

The main objective of the research was to explore how young women responded to finding out they were pregnant, who they talked to, who supported them, and how their behaviours were influenced by local services, including access to sex education and contraception advice.

Specific objectives were to explore:

Project C Card. Research Presentation. Prepared for Teen Pregnancy Team, Wakefield PCT.

Research was required to find out primarily where young people would prefer to access free condoms, but to also explore the mechanics of how they want to access them and what types of condoms they would like to be made available as well as how awareness of the scheme should be raised.

Young people's and their health: Research to inform the development of a specific health micro-site

The research objectives were to explore young people's reactions to:

  • the concept of a micro-side aimed specifically at people in Humberside
  • a sexual health poster encouraging them to 'Text SAM' or access the micro-site directly
  • the relative effectiveness of a range of posters in terms of impact, appeal, relevance, etc.
  • the appeal and relevance of a screenshot from the micro-site.

To provide context, young people's attitudes to sexual health and health in general were briefly explored.

Teenage pregnancy and the workforce: Qualitative research

The overall aim of the research was to understand the workforce's perceptions of issues faced by young people as well as current approaches to sex education and issues surrounding teenage pregnancy. More specifically: 1. To understand what the workforce see as the problems, issues and norms surrounding teenage pregnancy; 2. To explore what the workforce believe is their role and contribution to the solution of teenage pregnancy and promotion of sexual health; 3. To understand what resources and solutions can most effectively meet workers' needs throughout the network.
