🏳️‍🌈 Pride in London 2025 🏳️‍🌈
This year, we're proud to be marching with our friends at Fast-Track Cities London, standing in LGBTQ+ solidarity and celebrating visibility for people living with HIV.

But we’re marching with heavy hearts.

Our Gay Men’s Project, the only pan-London service for LGBTQ+ men living with HIV, is currently paused due to loss of funding. That means we couldn’t bring our full Positively UK group to Pride this year.

Make Pride meaningful today by helping us bring the service back, so we march together again in 2026.

🧡 Wear Your Pride with U=U! 🌈

Make a statement this Pride with our bold t-shirt: Undetectable = Untransmittable.

This design challenges stigma and sparks conversations because someone living with HIV who is undetectable cannot transmit the virus.

The idea came from our women’s group, where Julie Reynolds (), living with HIV since 1991, created this twist on U=U.

Every penny helps bring back our support services for LGBTQ+ men living with HIV.

✨ Whether you’re LGBTQ+ or an ally, wear this tee with pride and stand up against HIV stigma!

“We transform into rebels out of our hurt and our wounds.” - Silvia Petretti, CEO ()

At this year’s AIR Festival, our Banner Making workshop became a space for expression, emotion, and collective rebellion.

The workshop invited participants to connect with what activism feels like through colour, memory, and imagination.

Together we created a Rebel Space, a space where our banners spoke not just of resistance, but of shared journeys and unapologetic presence.

“Without community there is no liberation.” – Audre Lorde

Poverty and disability are deeply connected – and people living with HIV are often hit hardest.

The APPG on Poverty and Inequality’s new report shows:

🔹 Disabled people face over £1,000/month in extra costs
🔹 The proposed PIP cuts could affect 400,000 people
🔹 Delays and reassessments are pushing people into crisis

At Positively UK, we see the impact on social reform every day. One of our participants had just 80p in their account after weeks with no Universal Credit payment. They relied on food banks and couldn’t attend medical appointments. This is what systemic neglect looks like.

Poverty should never be a barrier to health or dignity. Therefore, we are calling on the government to abandon these cuts and work with disabled people to build a fairer system.

Through the support of Fast-Track Cities London, we can help people living with HIV to navigte welfare, housing and immigration challenges.
