So what is the cause, and why is it so important to get talking about sex? AIDS is the biggest killer of young people in sub-Saharan Africa, and the second biggest killer of young people worldwide. There are lots of reasons for this, but some of the biggest are a lack of proper safe sex education, of available sexual health services, and the stigma that surrounds HIV and AIDS that stops people from talking about it (which then leads to unhelpful misconceptions) and getting tested.

It’s not just in places like sub-Saharan Africa that safe sex info needs to get some serious airtime. Public Health England stats this year revealed that a case of chlamydia or gonorrhoea is diagnosed in a young person every 4 minutes in England. We want to tackle that, and raise awareness about how important it is to have safe sex, and how much it doesn’t infringe AT ALL on your fun. If anything it should make you relax more, knowing you don’t have the deal with any unpleasant consequences like STIs or an unwanted pregnancy.

The subject of HIV and AIDS can be pretty heavy, especially since the spread of HIV is such a serious risk for young people around the world. But talking about sex can be fun too, and what better way to tackle the serious stuffthan viasix hours of fun, live sex-y chat by Made In Chelsea’s Jamie and Francis, raisingmoney forthe cause at the same time?!
