World AIDS Day is a global movement to unite people in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Since 1988, communities have stood together on World AIDS Day to show strength and solidarity against HIV stigma and to remember lives lost.
In the UK, more than 105,000 people are living with HIV. Globally, an estimated 38 million people live with the virus. More than 35 million people have died of HIV or AIDS related illnesses over the past 40 years, making it one of the most destructive pandemics in history.
The iconic Red Ribbon is an enduring symbol of support for anyone who has been affected by HIV and AIDS. By purchasing a Red Ribbon from National AIDS Trust, you'll send a message of solidarity while helping us to reach our goal of ending new HIV transmissions by 2030.
We have linked some articles down below about how you can help end new HIV cases by 2030.
