What a privilege to meet with the UK Minister for Equalities Nia Griffith MP today in Cardiff! @niagriffith.bsky.social
We discussed our ongoing collaborations with charities, local authorities, health boards, research teams, and clinics across Wales.
Iβm always inspired by the incredible community work that our METRO teams do: bringing free, key services right to where theyβre needed most.

I took a short break from emails and meetings to join Anders, Edith, & our amazing HIV Domain team as they gear up for National #HIV Testing Week!
They set up our @metrocharity.bsky.socialβs HIV testing bus in South-East London, engaging communities & offering HIV tests with rapid results!
They have been making a tangible difference in the lives of so many.
Stepping into this role, I feel privileged to be able to learn from our teams and the communities we serve.
I look forward to working alongside our CEO Tony Wong, our incredible teams and trustees, our partners, and communities.
Iβm incredibly proud to be joining METRO Charity as the new Director of Services.

From setbacks to successes, this year was transformative. From the LGBTQ+ Action Plan, the work on ending HIV in Wales, and the Stop HIV Stigma campaign; to prioritising mental health & losing 30KG (c.4 Stones)
