This World AIDS Day Special offers laughter, tears, and unforgettable stories from those who have fought, loved, and changed the world around them.
This special live event honours pioneering HIV activists whose courage, love, and defiance have reshaped healthcare, challenged stigma, ignited sex positivity, and inspired generations—from street protests to parliament.
“What makes a great activist? We’re sharing the lives of two brilliant people who changed things for the better for people with HIV in the UK”
Lisa Power, HIV and queer rights activist and campaigner, Chair of HIV Justice Network, co-founder of Stonewall and Pink Paper, Queer Britain Trustee.
