Chlamydia Chlamydia is the commonest sexually transmitted infection. 1 in 10 people under 25 years of age have Chlamydia and most do not have any signs or symptoms. It affects both men and women. If left untreated it can cause long term health problems in both males and females. Be young and be sexy but don't be infected!! Cycle Fitness Cycling can offer the chance to keep fit, save money and get around town more easily albeit there are, as always, certain provisos.

We will be upgrading our patient cycle stand this year and installing a stand for staff to use.	http://www.bclear.org.uk Cycle to the Surgery
