In August 2022, we published the Women’s Health Strategy for England which sets out our 10 year ambitions and actions we are taking to improve health for women and girls including sexual and reproductive health. We also published a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) action plan in 2021 which sets out the actions that we are taking over the period 2022 to 2025 to move towards ending HIV transmissions and HIV and acquired immune deficiency syndrome related deaths within England by 2030. We remain committed to improving sexual and reproductive health, including reducing sexually transmitted infections incidence, in England.
