World Aids Day @THT

World AIDS Day is held every year on 1 December, and is a time to remember those we have lost to HIV. The red ribbon is the international symbol for HIV awareness and support for people living with HIV. But for our community, its more than a ribbon. Its remembering everyone lost to HIV. Its a promise to support people living with HIV. Its a pledge to end new cases of HIV by 2030. Its a stand against HIV stigma. This World AIDS Day, as we remember those weve lost to HIV, join with our community to promise, pledge and take a stand against stigma for people living with HIV because its more than a ribbon. Donate now. Terrence Higgins Trust - We are the UKs leading HIV charity providing support, advice, and information services to people living with HIV. We strive for a future where there are no new cases of HIV and where people living with HIV get the support they need. With your support, we can continue to change the lives of people living with HIV. 15 could help answer one call to THT Direct, a lifeline that helps over 12,000 vulnerable people each year. 50 could help provide a vital grant for people living with HIV struggling to afford basic necessities. 100 could help fund our Living Well services to ensure people living with HIV receive the support they need. Join us in supporting people living with HIV this World AIDS Day. Donate now.
