The first TV advert on HIV since the UK Government’s ‘Don’t Die of Ignorance’ campaign 40 years ago airs TONIGHT.
The powerful film is a decades over-due update on the incredible progress we’ve made — as well as the abhorrent stigma which remains.

#WorldAIDSDay. If you're living with #HIV or supporting someone who is, connecting with others can make a world of difference.

#WorldAIDSDay Common misconceptions about HIV have a devastating impact on people living with the virus. But HIV is now treatable, and just one pill a day means it can’t be passed on. And if HIV can’t be passed on, we can end new cases in Scotland. HIVstigma.scot

Today is my 32nd #WorldAIDSDay living openly as an #HIVpositive woman. I remember my partner Ian and all my friends who died of #AIDS. I pay tribute to all those working in the HIV community to tackle stigma and raise awareness about #HIV particularly the #UequalsU message.

Today is World AIDS Day, a time for us to change the narrative on HIV 💪
Now’s the time for communities to take a lead on challenging stigma, encouraging testing, and supporting those that are affected! ✨
