Sexual health, reproductive health and HIV in England: a guide to local and national data
Updated 17 July 2024
This document is a guide to sources of local and national data related to sexual health, reproductive health and HIV for England.
It is intended as a resource for statutory or voluntary organisations concerned with policy planning and development, commissioning services, the management of sexual health interventions and monitoring and investigating the burden of diagnoses.
This guide has been developed to provide health professionals including local government, service providers and commissioners with the primary information they require to understand the sexual and reproductive health data that is available and how the data can be accessed. It includes data collected by UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) and other organisations.

Sexual and Reproductive Health Profiles (SRH Profiles)
The SRH Profiles, also known as ‘Fingertips’, have been developed by UKHSA and OHID to support local authorities, public health leads and other healthcare professionals to monitor sexual and reproductive health of their population and the contribution of local public health related systems. The profiles are publicly available.
Interactive maps, charts and tables are used which enable users to quickly explore topics and the wider influences of factors, such as alcohol use on sexual health. The indicators are listed in Appendix 1.
The data is grouped into 6 domains:
- key indicators
- STI
- HIV
- reproductive health
- teenage pregnancy
- wider determinants of health
The following geographic breakdowns and comparisons are available:
- national (England)
- local authority (upper and lower tier)
- regions, formerly known as Government Office Regions
- UKHSA regions
- nearest neighbour (Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA))
- deprivation decile (upper tier local authority)
Individual local authorities can be compared against other local authorities within a region. Local authorities can also be benchmarked against national data, health service goals and thresholds. Other features include the ability to compare the burden of disease and service performance within a local authority with that of its statistical nearest neighbours and comparing the direction of travel for key indicators using the ‘recent trend’ display feature.
SPLASH reports
The SPLASH reports provide a narrative and overview of the latest sexual and reproductive health data presented at local authority (upper tier, that is county and unitary authority). The SPLASH reports can be accessed through the ‘Reports’ data view in the SRH Profiles and are available to download for selected local authorities.
The information includes data from the SRH Profiles on:
- STIs
- HIV
- conceptions in women aged 17 years and under
- abortion
- contraception
Maps showing distribution of STI diagnoses (excluding chlamydia in aged 24 years and under), chlamydia detection rate, HIV diagnosed prevalence and conceptions in aged 17 years and under are included in these reports.
SPLASH supplement reports
These reports complement the main SPLASH reports by presenting further breakdowns of data for an individual local authority (upper tier) by age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD).
These reports can be accessed via the HIV and STI Data Exchange for registered users.
Power BI dashboards: national and local data
The STI Snapshot dashboard, produced by the RESTI team at UKHSA, provides a brief, timely insight into trends in STI diagnoses. It is only available to registered users internal to UKHSA. The dashboard shows trends of chlamydia, herpes, syphilis, gonorrhoea, shigella, LGV and monkeypox (mpox) diagnoses are presented for England and by UKHSA region, using laboratory surveillance data. This dashboard is updated monthly and registered users are notified of updates via email.
The RESTI team also maintains a Local Syphilis Metrics dashboard. This uses GUMCAD data to give a detailed insight into the local epidemiology of syphilis and information to facilitate more targeted service delivery. This dashboard is updated quarterly and registered users are notified of updates via email.
The STI Snapshot or Local Syphilis Metrics dashboards are restricted to approved, named users, such as colleagues working in health protection teams, UKHSA Field Services and sexual health facilitators. For more information on how to request access to the dashboards, contact the RESTI team at RESTI_enquiries@ukhsa.gov.co.uk
The HIV team at UKHSA maintains an HIV dashboard called the HIV Care Pathway, which is only available to colleagues in the Blood Safety, Hepatitis, Sexually Transmitted Infections Division and Programme Delivery and Service Improvement section. It provides data at local, regional and ICB level and supports the development of local HIV Action Plans through meetings with local stakeholders. For more information about the HIV Care Pathway, contact the HIV team at harsqueries@ukhsa.gov.uk
Real-time surveillance reports
The RESTI team produces a weekly surveillance report focusing on trends of sexually transmitted Shigella spp. in England and a monthly LGV sentinel report, which are distributed to a list UKHSA colleagues.
HIV and STI Data Exchange
The HIV and STI Data Exchange is a secure UKHSA web facility that provides the following reports based on data collected by the GUMCAD STI Surveillance System:
- GUMCAD reports: dynamic data summaries based on user defined parameters for specific sexual health clinics, patient area of residence and time-period (from 2009 to most recent quarter available)
- GUMCAD clinic reports: an annual report that includes a detailed data summary for each sexual health clinic (access is restricted to GUMCAD clinic reporters only)
- SPLASH supplement reports: an annual report that gives breakdowns of selected sexual health indicators for each upper tier local authority and is available from the SRH Profiles
Access to the HIV and STI Data Exchange is restricted to named health professionals, such as sexual health commissioners within local authorities and GUMCAD data reporters. For more information, please contact gumcad@ukhsa.gov.uk
HIV and STI Web Portal

Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF)
The PHOF sets out a vision for public health to improve and protect the nation’s health and improve the health of the poorest fastest. The framework focuses on the 2 high level outcomes the DHSC wants to achieve across the public health system and beyond. These are increased healthy life expectancy and reduced differences in life expectancy and healthy life expectancy between communities.
The online data tool presents data for available indicators at England and lower or upper tier local authority levels, collated by UKHSA. It allows the same grouping and benchmarking options as the SRH Profiles. There is also a new inequalities domain that shows various national level inequality breakdowns for selected indicators (including the majority of those listed below). A list of indicators updated, for the most recent and previous releases, can be found in the PHOF collection.
The following sexual health indicators are included in the PHOF (domains shown in brackets):
- conceptions in aged 17 years and under (Health Improvement)
- chlamydia detection rate per 100,000 aged 15 to 24 years (female, male and persons) (Health Protection)
- new STI diagnoses (excluding chlamydia aged 24 years and under) per 100,000 (Health Protection)
- total prescribed LARC excluding injections rate (Health Improvement)
- HIV late diagnosis in people first diagnosed with HIV in the UK (Health Protection)
- population vaccine coverage for HPV (Health Protection)
- crude rate of sexual offences per 1,000 population (Wider Determinants)
Data is published as part of a quarterly update cycle in August, November, February, and May. Exact dates are announced on the UK statistical release calendar and the PHOF website. Where available, data is presented for the most recent period with accompanying trend data where possible. Data for inequalities is also provided.
Reducing inequalities in Sexual Health (RiiSH)
The RiiSH survey (assessing the impact of lockdown on sex and service use among MSM in the UK) was undertaken by the National Institute for Health and Care Research funded Health Protection Research Unit in Blood Borne and Sexually Transmitted Infections at University College London, in collaboration with UKHSA. The study consisted of 2 online surveys (June to July and November to December 2020) which assessed the impact of lockdown on sex and service use among MSM in the UK. The results will inform public health messaging, support needs assessments for future public health planning and help mitigate risks to health among a population group disproportionately burdened by STIs and HIV.
National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (Natsal)
Natsal publishes information on key sexual behaviours, risk factors and trends over time. Three surveys have taken place: Natsal-1 in 1990 to 1991, Natsal-2 in 1999 to 2001 and Natsal-3 in 2010 to 2012. Natsal-4 interviews were held in 2022 to 2023.
Local Authority Health Profiles
The Local Authority Health Profiles provide an overview of health for each local authority in England. They pull together existing information in one place and contain data on a range of indicators for local populations, highlighting issues that can affect health in each locality. The profiles are intended as ‘conversation starters’ that help local government and health services make plans to improve the health of their local population and reduce health inequalities. The local authority specific reports are available to download and an online tool allows users to create bespoke analyses and reports.
Child and Maternal Health profiles
The Child and Maternal Health profiles presents data on factors related to the health and wellbeing of pregnant women, children and young people. These indicators are designed to help local authorities and health services improve the health and wellbeing of children and tackle health inequalities. The profiles are available for each upper tier local authority and for each clinical commissioning group in England.
Health Behaviour of School-aged Children (HBSC) England and national reports
This report presents the findings for England from the HBSC World Health Organization collaborative study. It includes an up-to-date view of adolescent health and wellbeing in England and includes an overview of trends in these areas (2002 to 2022).
