Today is #WorldAIDSDay an important day to remember loved ones, and all of us to pledge a commitment to end stigma and end new transmissions of HIV @LGBTfdn @GMPaSH

LGBT Foundation@LGBTfdn

Today, 1st December is #WorldAIDSDay. In 2023, people living with HIV still face stigma and judgement despite almost one in every 600 people in the UK having a HIV-positive status and huge steps in the treatment and prevention of HIV having been made.

NINE new #HIV infections in 2022! Is there any question why #FTC2023 is in the city of #Amsterdam this year. It is a proof of concept that both innovation and persistence can deliver results. Time to replicate, @FastTrackCities!

NEW: Important these @MailOnline articles have been updated to remove the false claim three @IcelandFoods colleagues are HIV positive as a result of needle attacks. Disappointing @icelandrichard won’t apologise for sharing a falsehood and how his company sought to weaponise HIV.

If you're considering whether our services may be for you, listen to Matthew's story. Matthew accessed our services at a challenging time, and through our specialist LGBTQ+ support, has had the chance to transform his life for the better.
