HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus which can be passed on through sexual health contact, needle sharing or other drug injection equipment. HIV can also be passed on to baby during pregnancy or with breast milk.

HIV is a virus that damages your immune system so it makes you more vulnerable to infections. HIV can be life threatening, however when early diagnosed can be treated. Although there's no cure for HIV, there are medicines that help people with HIV live longer, healthier lives.

This annual event raises awareness about HIV/AIDS, commemorates those who have lost their lives, and celebrates progress in prevention, treatment, and care. Since January 2018, the Fast-Track Cities initiative aims to end the HIV epidemic by 2030. Newham fully supports this initiative, striving for zero new HIV infections, zero preventable deaths, and zero HIV-associated stigma by 2030. We ensure every Newham resident living with HIV is supported, and those at risk have access to prevention and testing.
