Public Health resources

The Public Health Resource Centre holds a large stock of models, equipment, books, DVDs, teaching packs, games, reports and CD-ROMs on a wide variety of public health topics available for loan.

We also have leaflets and posters available to order that are free of charge and that you don't need to return.

We supply condoms and pregnancy tests to local organisations registered on the C-Card scheme, Condom Distribution Scheme or Pregnancy Testing Scheme.
