Part Two to the beautiful clay models made by our Brent support group! The group brought their models back this month to be painted in vibrant colours 🎨🌈
Last night we had a focus group with Black women living with HIV to learn more about experiences with digital health tools (like the NHS app).
The women made these lovely drawings of flowers so they could be quoted anonymously in our write-up! - "Sunflower said phone appointments were..." 🌻📱🧡
This beautiful clay artwork was made by our Brent support group in collaboration with Ealing and Harrow! Next session the group will return to paint their creations in beautiful colours - we know you can't wait to see the results 🌈
Positively UK at the Chiva Conference! (@chivaprojects.bsky.social Children Living with HIV). We were so excited at the amazing enthusiasm of everyone from children to clinicians - we hope everyone wears their orange badges with pride 🧡
The term "Long Covid" was introduced by activist Elisa Perego to describe her own lived experience. The meaningful involvement of people with lived experience in research and their own care is integral to supporting people living with Long Covid—just as it is for people living with HIV. 3/3
Long Covid is a chronic illness caused by the COVID-19 virus, with symptoms including extreme fatigue, chronic pain, and brain fog.
Research shows people living with HIV are more likely to develop Long Covid. 2/3
Long Covid Awareness Day - 1/4
This beautiful artwork was produced by the women of our Bridges group in Lewisham, Lambeth, Southwark yesterday (12th March) to mark International Women's Day 🧡💃
Come and find Positively UK at the Chiva Conference! (Or don't, if you hate free chocolate, good conversation, and peer support vibes)
Prof Diana Gibb from the MRC at UCL shared an excellent summary of HIV paediatric trials looking back and sharing optimistic news from recent research.
5 year follow up data from Penta's ODYSSEY Trial continues to show the benefit of dolutegravir for children living with HIV.

Wow what a night we had last night, opening the 20th Annual Chiva Conference.
We had exciting updates on HIV cure research and on the HIV Action Plan, powerful poetry, all followed by a meal and karaoke with the Chiva Youth Committee to celebrate 20 years of the #ChivaConference.

Good morning from sunny Orsett, Essex, where we're providing peer support in the village clinic today! 🏡🌄
Nostalgia or fomo? Well, we have some good news - you still have three days to sign up for conference 2026, Towards Equity. Join us in June as we do it all again, with more community, punch, and vibes than ever.
You'll find the sign-up form here: positivelyuk.org/conference-2... 5/5
"A brilliant conference that delivers a punch - wonderful to connect with other people living with HIV again". 4/5
"My first time attending a HIV conference, and it will not be my last. Much more fun than I expected!" - That's because amazing things happen when people living with HIV come together.
The whole day was "fantastic and a great vibe". 3/5
One delegate told us that "It helps build community....I learn from others who are more visible, as I can't be". That's #OneVoiceMultipleExperiences in a nutshell 🧡
And this year we'll be asking a related question - how can we build towards equity for all of us? 2/5
