Against a two tone red background reads the text "EXCITING NEWS: One Voice Network to deliver HIV prevention programme for London's Black heritage communities". Beneath the text are logos for Do It London, One Voice Network and Skin Like Mine
This inequity must end.
The Skin Like Mine programme is designed to serve Black Londoners by breaking down barriers and ensuring everyone has the tools to protect their health.
Black Londoners face unique challenges when it comes to HIV prevention – from stigma and structural barriers to unequal access to services. Over half of new HIV diagnoses in Black heritage people are made late, increasing health risks and onward transmission.
Against a two-tone red background are a Black woman's arm and hand, adorned with nail art and rings. She holds a vial for an HIV test between a finger and thumb. Overlayed with her hand is text reading: Skin Like Mine: HIV Prevention for London's Black Communities
We’re excited to announce *Skin Like Mine* – a new HIV prevention programme for Black Londoners, delivered by
@onevoicenetwork.bsky.social between January and April 2026, and funded by the London HIV Prevention Programme.

Against an orange and yellow background reads "HIV wasn't in my plans" Jose's experience of living with HIV - in his own words. Next to this text is a picture of Jose, smiling.
Living with HIV is both personal and universal: unique journeys, shared truths.
Whether you're newly diagnosed or this is the 50th #WorldAIDSday you've experienced living with HIV, we hope Jose's words speak to you.

Against a two tone green background read the words: Your parents never thought they'd see the day. With effective treatment, HIV can't be passed on. U=U.
We’re lucky to live in a time where HIV treatment means long, healthy lives. But late diagnosis can still impact your health. The fix? Test. It’s free, quick & confidential. Do it at least once a year for peace of mind.

Copies of The London Standard lie on a green chair. The front page features Tyla, above an advert that reads "West Ham. Chelsea. Same Goal. Together we can end new HIV transmissions". Adjacent to this is the Do It London logo and URL: doitlondon.org
Whether you're backing West Ham or Chelsea today we all share the same goal: ending new HIV transmissions in London.
✅ Test regularly
✅ Use HIV PrEP
✅ Use condoms
✅ Know that Undetectable = Untransmittable

Against a two-tone red background sits white text that reads "We got through lockdown in shoebox flats. We can end new HIV transmissions." On the right is the DO IT LONDON logo with the strapline "Let's prevent HIV together"
Gorgeous people - if you see our posters out in the wild, tell us!
And tell your mum, your mates, the guy in the chip shop. Together, London, we can end new HIV transmissions.

Against a two-tone yellow background reads "Sliding into their DMs. PrEP. One of these is 99% effective. PrEP is a free daily pill that helps prevent HIV." At the bottom right is the DO IT LONDON logo with strapline "Let's prevent HIV together."
We're sharing what all Londoners should know:
That condoms, PrEP and regular testing help to prevent HIV
And that Undetectable equals Untransmittable: that with effective medication, people living with HIV can live long, healthy lives, and HIV can't be passed on.
Against a purple and blue background reads "Walk on the left. Stand on the right. Here's another thing every Londoner should know: with effective medication, HIV can't be passed on." Underneath that is the Do It London logo and strapline reading "Let's prevent HIV together"
Most Londoners don’t know enough about HIV, and what they can do to help stop new transmissions.
But there’s a lot you DO know about being a Londoner.
We're incredibly excited to TODAY launch our new campaign inviting all Londoners to help prevent HIV together.
We invited seven people living with HIV to have a conversation with their loved one about their relationship and navigating their journeys with #HIV.
Love ends stigma. Full film is now out on YouTube!

Telling your family you’re living with HIV can be emotional—but also empowering. Kuba & Jose share how they approached disclosure (or not), and offer tips if you’re considering having that conversation.

"It wasn't an individual. It was a system".
Our Lead Commissioner Marc Thompson joined others in sitting with family and friends for a beautiful, raw conversation about living with HIV and about HIV stigma.

"Once you’re on medication, you can reach an undetectable status, meaning you can’t pass #HIV on. U=U (undetectable equals untransmittable). It’s science, it’s fact, and it’s a game-changer. " Thank you, Adam, for sharing your story and raising awareness!
