Abbie Louise’s Where is the Love campaign aimed to encourage young people to have sex only when they are ready to, and when they want to, and not when they feel like they have to.
Too many teens feel pressured into it, or rush in to it unprepared and don’t have enough sex education at school. Abbie’s view is that we should be safe, be secure, and be sure before heading off to bed.
This is clearly an issue at in the minds of many teenagers, and as such her campaign was really popular. It also attracted the attention of the honchos at Hollyoaks, who invited Abbie Louise up to visit the set of the soap to chat about the issue of young people having sex – an issue which was being tackled in the show at the time. She also conducted a big survey about young people and sex, which highlighted some interesting stats that she shared on Facebook.
