Sexual Health Week 2026 - Let's Connect

From 14th to 20th September, Sexual Health Week is celebrated across the UK. This year, the theme is based on championing human connection in platonic, romantic and sexual relationships. In a world where many feel increasingly detached from themselves and others, it is important to raise awareness of the challenges of modern life and consider how strong communities can help to build support and meaningful connections. 

Look out for a blog on this later in the week, as well as suggestions for ways to feel better connected to our bodies, emotions and own needs.

New School Year, New Ventures 

This month sees the start of some new and exciting working partnerships as I prepare for lessons in Liverpool with girls in a couple of multi-academy schools. These workshops are part of the Girl Guide Inspired sessions and will be a collaborative project where girls can build confidence and develop leadership skills. The girls will work together to create a project and their chosen form of presentation to share their learning about a topic they feel passionate about.  Research has found that girls involved in Guiding are 30% more confident than the UK average.

Some of the fab session resources received last week!

As well as partnering with the Girl Guides to deliver sessions, I am also delighted to be involved with the amazing charity Live! Cheshire, which offers inclusive and accessible learning to children, young people and adults with a range of disabilities.  Last week I was privileged to work with some incredible young people on the topic of self esteem, creating vision boards of their future aspirations, and in the weeks and months ahead will be dropping in to deliver sessions around healthy relationships, safer sex and consent. To find out more about the exceptional provision and range of projects Live! offers, take a look at their website: https://livecheshire.org.uk/


The third new working partnership for September is with The Wellbeing Hub, which works with schools in the UK and globally to offer lesson resources, podcasts, blogs and events to support schools in nurturing young people's health and wellbeing. After kicking off the month with a webinar on the updated RSHE guidance, Bee Informed has also been contributing to the ever growing range of lesson plans for KS1 and KS2. Over the next year, more plans will be rolled out to the 300+ schools to access on topics such as respect, consent, body safety and online safety.

Finally, this September sees a new page added to this website as Bee Informed will be adding a section around celebrating acts of kindness and stories of good news. Often, young people only hear stories in the news that are worrying or negative and seldom get to hear about the all the good things in the world. As a way of encouraging hope and kindness among pupils, there will be a daily journal dedicated to the inspiring and positive things that are happening locally and internationally. Please feel free to read about some of these good news stories and share them with your pupils. The positive news stories can be found on the Good News Daily page. 

RSE Day - It Begins With Me

This year's RSE Day materials are now out and can be found on the www.rseday.com website. 

Bee Informed is very excited about this year's celebration of the importance of relationships and sex education within the school curriculum and it has been a wonderful opportunity to have partnered with Nottingham city Council's Achieve Well Team to create resources for the day. These can be downloaded by schools (primary and secondary) for free, as well as parents.
