In the charity's own words
We aim to preserve and improve the good health of people living with HIV, particularly (though not exclusively) those attending the Bloomsbury Clinic. We achieve this by providing information, advice, and raising awareness of issues pertaining to living with HIV and its associated co-morbidities, primarily through educational forums, workshops and courses, as well as community and social events.
