Want to Contribute to Sex Actually?

We’re always looking to grow our library and we believe the best sexual resource is one that brings together both clinical expertise and lived experience.

Whether you’re a qualified professional working in sexual health, relationships or mental health, or someone with a personal perspective that others would benefit from hearing about, we would love to hear from you.

  • Clinical contributors - doctors, psychologists, therapists, researchers and allied health professionals with relevant experience.

  • Lived experience writers - personal perspectives that are honest, inclusive and add something to the conversation that clinical knowledge alone can’t.

We’re also committed to keeping Sex Actually inclusive and accessible. If you notice language that doesn’t feel right, content that is missing, or a perspective that isn’t represented - please let us know. Your feedback genuinely shapes that site.
