Public Health England works closely with the Family Planning Association (FPA) to ensure information on contraception is up to date and available in different formats, including posters and leaflets. The FPA produces leaflets on all methods of contraception that are in use across sexual health services and general practice surgeries throughout the United Kingdom.

Public Health England manages the free National Sexual Health Helpline which provides information about all methods of contraception, including how they can be accessed.
