Keen to tackle the stigma around chemsex, Cork's Sexual Health Centre is encouraging anyone who engages in the practice to come forward for advice and support.

HIV activist and researcher David Stuart, who passed away in January 2022 at the age of 52, led global efforts to reduce the harms of chemsex and destigmatise it.
