Q: My friends are taking drugs and I feel under pressure to take them, but I don�t want to. What can I do? A: It is really up to what you decide. Sometimes it is hard to say no to friends as you may be scared that they will laugh at you or start to leave you out. But it is your decision, for support on how to handle this, come in and talk. This sounds like a really difficult situation you are in. You are more than welcome to discuss your feelings with a Corner worker, and build your confidence in order to do what is right for you.

Q: Can I get pregnant on my period? A: Although this is unlikely there is still a chance of getting pregnant so it is important to use a form of contraception such as condoms.

Q: My boyfriend pulled out before ejaculation can I still get pregnant? A: Yes there is something called pre cum and there are thousands of sperm in this and it only takes one sperm to get you pregnant.

Q: I don't have any symptoms of an STI, should I still get tested? A: Yes, symptoms of STIs can be silent so even if you have no signs it is important to get checked out just to make sure.

Q: Can you get the morning after pill or contraception for someone else, such as a girlfriend or friend? A: No. It is important that staff speak to the person that requires the service to ensure they receive what they need and so that it can done safely.

Q: How long will I have to wait to be seen? A: It depends on the service you are in for, and how busy we are. We will always try to get you seen as quickly as possible. Staff will keep you informed on waiting times as much as they can.
