The Rainbow Project

The Rainbow Project

Cost: Free

Are you a Man who has Sex with Men? (Including Gay, Bisexual or Trans individuals*)

The Rainbow Project, in partnership with Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, provide free, full, confidential and non-judgemental Sexual Health clinics at Pipeworks Sauna from 5.30 - 8.00 pm on the last Tuesday of each month. Those who attend can access the sauna for free afterwards should they wish. You do not have to pay to attend the clinic in the sauna.

Our clinics operate as a first come first serve service. However if you come from outside of Belfast Trust or South Eastern Trust you can be provided with a reserve slot (this is in cases where you might be travelling from far afield and would not have the opportunity to contact us while driving). If you come from outside these areas please contact our Sexual Health Development Officer, James Copeland, who will provide direction and support.

Upon arrival you will be greeted by our Sexual Health Development Officer, James, and a volunteer who will get you settled in, have a chat and get you a nice cuppa. We'll ask you to fill in a demographic monitoring form. If you are unable to complete and require some assistance we can support you in this. From here you will be introduced to one of our clinicians/nurses who will provide you with high quality sexual health information and testing. Tests include:

  • HIV
  • Syphilis
  • Gonorrhoea (pharangael, rectal, penile, vaginal)
  • Chlamydia/LGV (pharangael, rectal, penile, vaginal)
  • Hepatitis B
  • Hepatitis C

We also provide you with your Hepatitis A and B vaccinations. 

Our clinics can accomodate up to 20 individuals but sometimes fill up fast so be sure to get there in time. We require that you don't urinate less than two hours before you attend the clinic so that we can get a good urine sample for testing. All further testing is explained by our trained staff on the night.

For more information contact us through the details to the right.

* if you're unsure whether this clinic is appropriate to your needs please contact us so that we can best direct you
