The service has been thoughtfully shaped around the lived experiences of gay men, navigating questions of identity, intimacy, chemsex, substance use, and mental health.

Julian is committed to building a service that is both clinically sound and genuinely human - one that fosters safety, dignity, and meaningful change.
