Women's and Girls' Health Hub
Our Women’s and Girls’ Health Hub is designed to improve access to women’s health services for girls and women aged 13 and over living in Bexley and Greenwich.
You can self-refer for support with period problems, perimenopause and menopause, contraception, cervical screening, sexual health and pre-pregnancy care – with no GP appointment needed.
