🌈✨ U=U = power, pride & freedom.
On effective HIV treatment = undetectable = cannot pass it on.

Telling your family you’re living with HIV can be emotionalβ€”but also empowering. Kuba & Jose share how they approached disclosure (or not), and offer tips if you’re considering having that conversation.

HIV shouldn’t be a barrier to safety or opportunity – but for many people newly arriving in the UK, it can still create uncertainty including about whether living with HIV can affect your immigration status.Β

HIV treatment in the UK is free, effective, and life-changing. When taken as prescribed, it reduces the virus to undetectable levels – meaning it can’t be passed on.Β

We remember those lost to HIV with love and pride. Today, thanks to treatment, people living with HIV can live long, healthy lives – but we never forget the journey it took to get here.

🌈 Pride began as a protest.
From the first march in 1972 to the fight against HIV stigma today, our history is one of resilience, defiance, and community.

Watch Jonathan Blake tell the story of how far we’ve come β€” and why Pride still matters.

Get tested, and get treated. If you have HIV and you are on treatment, you can live well and not pass it on.

Let's work together to end the stigma associated with HIV.
