Q: Can my friend be with me when I get the service I'm in for? A: Initially you will be seen on your own as you may be asked personal questions. After this you can discuss with staff having a friend with you.

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.

Q: How soon after unprotected sex can I have an STI test? A: Two weeks after unprotected sex.

Q: What happens when I come into The Corner? A: There will be a member of staff at the desk to welcome you when you first come in. You will be handed a tick sheet which lists all of our services and you will be asked to tick which service that you need. We ask you to tick the sheet when you come in so that you don't have to say out loud what service you need in front of other people. If you are unsure just tell the member of staff and they can have a chat with you to find out what you need. Once you have ticked the sheet we ask you to take a seat (you can choose where you sit) and the staff will keep you updated with how long it will take for you to be seen. (This can depend on the service that you are for and how busy we are).

Q: If I tell you I self harm will you try to put me in hospital? A: We will not put you in hospital; however we will work with other services to make sure you get the best care possible. Self harm is a way of coping with troubles, not the most positive or constructive, but we would never force you to do anything.

Q: Can I get pregnant even if I haven�t started my period yet? A: Yes there is a chance of pregnancy so it is important to use protection if you are planning to or are having sex.
