Charity & Support

About Terrence Higgins Trust

Terrence Higgins Trust is UK's leading HIV and sexual health charity. We support people living with HIV and amplify their voices, and help the people using our services to achieve good sexual health.

We have been supporting people with HIV for more than four decades. We provide advice, counselling, group support and crucially tackle the stigma experienced by so many people living with HIV.

Your support helps us work towards a world where:

  • There are no new HIV cases.

  • People living with HIV get the support they need.

  • Everyone can access good quality sexual and reproductive health services and information tailored to their individual needs.

  • HIV and sexual and reproductive health free from shame and stigma.

We're able to offer support and advice over the phone or in person via appointment. Our general phone number is 01273 764 200.
