Positively UK's Harun Tulunay - look for the purple hair in the picture! 💜 - spoke at the UK Health Security Agency's conference in Manchester today, bringing an HIV community perspective to the session "Beyond surveillance: understanding behaviour to prevent infection with BBVs/STIs".

Harun explored what the Positive Voices survey means to people living with HIV and how Positively UK's "Beyond Positive Voices" project, in collaboration with National AIDS Trust, shed light on the human experiences behind the survey's findings.

Data on stigma and unmet needs must lead to changes in policy, commissioning and services. And people living with HIV must be partners in shaping research, understanding its findings, and deciding what happens next.

Researchers at Exafield are inviting people not living with HIV to join a study about the needs of those that might benefit from PrEP. Take part in a 75-minute phone interview and earn £115 for yourself and £30 for Positively UK.

You must be eighteen or over, HIV-negative or not known to be living with HIV, and either currently taking PrEP, interested in taking PrEP in the future, or have previously taken PrEP in the past.

You can earn a further £20 by sharing evidence of PrEP use or a negative HIV test result.

To sign up, contact Victoria Ilina at [email protected].

Please remember to tell Victoria that you heard about the study through Positively UK, so that your participation puts £30 towards our vital work for people living with HIV.

What are you waiting for? Come and join us on Saturday 22nd November to walk or run, make some lovely memories, and raise money that will go directly to people living with HIV that support people living with HIV 💃🧡

People living with HIV in asylum hotels are facing an impossible choice: take their medication on an empty stomach, risking severe nausea and stomach problems, or skip doses altogether.

The food provided is often so spicy that residents physically can't eat it without feeling sick. And it's the same meal, day in, day out.

This is all on top of the anxiety of sharing a room with a stranger who might find your medication and find out your status.
