Following the conviction of a man for r*pe and GBH in East London involving HIV transmission, our thoughts are with all who are impacted. If you are living with HIV and need peer support, Positively UK is here for you.💜 📧 [email protected] 🌐 www.positivelyuk.org

Today is HIV & Ageing Awareness Day. It's a moment to pause and celebrate the activism that allows people living with HIV to live longer lives. And it's a reminder that older people belong at the centre of our movement as we continue to uplift people living with HIV at ALL ages.

POSTPONED: Due to Tube strikes, the "Our Needs as Gay Men" workshop and the "Come Together" event on 9 September tomorrow are postponed until further notice

🏃‍♂️The Red Run is the UK’s biggest HIV fundraiser. This year, Positively UK needs your support more than ever. Funds will keep our gay men’s group running – a lifeline that currently has no funding. 🏃Take action, lace up: www.redrun.org.uk/registration...

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article.... bbc.com/news/articles/cz60pd92xd1o Like many charities, we’re facing funding challenges, but we remain fully operational & committed to our mission. Our gay men’s group was reduced due to lack of funding, but we've secured support to run events in August!
