Black Londoners face unique challenges when it comes to HIV prevention β from stigma and structural barriers to unequal access to services. Over half of new HIV diagnoses in Black heritage people are made late, increasing health risks and onward transmission.

Living with HIV is both personal and universal: unique journeys, shared truths.
Whether you're newly diagnosed or this is the 50th #WorldAIDSday you've experienced living with HIV, we hope Jose's words speak to you.

Weβre lucky to live in a time where HIV treatment means long, healthy lives. But late diagnosis can still impact your health. The fix? Test. Itβs free, quick & confidential. Do it at least once a year for peace of mind.
