World AIDS Day - 1st December 2023

 World AIDS Day is celebrated every year on 1st December to unite people across the world in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Medical advances in the UK mean that people with the HIV virus can now lead long and healthy lives, however, HIV continues to be highly stigmatised and misunderstood.  World AIDS Day aims to highlight the discrimination still experienced by many.
