Contact a Family - the national charity for families with disabled teenagers - has joined forces with the Arthrogryposis Group to tackle the issue and produce three comprehensive guides.
Entitled 'Growing up, sex and relationships', the guides offer a wealth of information and advice. There are separate booklets for disabled teenagers, parents and teachers. Areas covered include self-esteem, making and keeping friends, personal relationships, body image, puberty, sex education, and
Sexual rights are human rights, so it's unclear why those who are disabled are denied access to sexual pleasure or information. I've heard countless stories from people who need sex advice and feel completely isolated. We need to support health care providers to feel less embarrassed about discussing sex. But sex isn't really a medical issue, any more than disability is.

Sometimes disabled young people are not offered sex education, or the classes they have don't talk about their particular needs. If this happens, you could ask your teacher about when the classes will be. You could also ask them for some time after the class so you could ask specific questions which you might not feel confident asking in front of the rest of the class. Don't bottle it up!! If you have questions or concerns then talk to someone about them.
