The ON IT Conference 2026: Your Reactions


Manchester has a large ChemSex scene, and we think it’s important to gather together venue owners, health professionals, content creators, and people with lived experience to explore the challenges around sex, chems, HIV and consent. Join us for a unique day event examining the issues around Sex, Chems, HIV and Consent. Hosted by George House Trust and We Are Survivors. We don’t want this to be a dry, corporate event.
This is Manchester, we need to talk about these issues openly, honestly and with that Manc ‘can-do’ attitude. Expect to be challenged, and entertained! Hosts include George House Trust and We Are Survivors Ambassador (not to mention all-round legend), Cheddar Gorgeous!
‘SEX! CHEMS! HIV! CONSENT! The ON IT Conference’ is the first event of its kind in Manchester. Exploring issues around sex, chems, HIV and consent, it’s inspired by the joint harm-reduction campaign, ON IT, from George House Trust and We Are Survivors. The event takes place from 10am – 4pm at The Eagle Manchester on Friday 30th January 2026.
Leave behind your expectations of what a conference should be. Expect to be entertained and challenged, as well as educated.
