Athlone Institute of Technology is to launch a student sexual service to help promote positive sexual health amongst its students.
Currently 61 percent of students who are aged 18 to 24 and are considered to be in the high risk category for sexually transmitted infection.

It'll be funded by Staintecare Integration Funds and will be nurse-led and overseen by a specialist.
