On World AIDS Day 2024, Scotland takes another bold step toward ending new HIV transmission by 2030 – but stigma continues to overshadow medical progress, with nearly half of Scots saying they would feel ashamed to disclose an HIV-positive status

Steven, a Support Worker in Glasgow, shares his journey in the hope of inspiring others to put people first when they receive an HIV diagnosis.

This World AIDS Day, Putting People First reminds us that while we’ve come a long way, there is still much work to do to ensure everyone living with HIV feels supported, valued, and understood. 

NHS Highland has recently completed a detailed review of its contract with Waverley Care and explored their options for the future delivery of these services.

A new report, ‘Beyond the Virus: Prioritising mental health for people living with HIV in Scotland’, has uncovered critical gaps in mental health care for people living with HIV across Scotland, and highlights urgent actions needed by the Scottish Government.

MSPs took rapid HIV tests at the Scottish Parliament today, with Waverley Care and Terrace Higgins Trust staff, to tackle stigma and highlighted the need for a National HIV Testing Week.

The Infected Blood Inquiry was established to examine the circumstances in which men, women and children treated by the NHS between 1970 and early 1990s were given infected blood and infected blood products.

Since 2019, Waverley Care have been the proud charity partner of Criterion. This year they embark on a new and exciting challenge to raise vital funds for Waverley Care by cycling and walking the North Coast and Castles route all the way from Edinburgh Castle to Aberdeen.

Waverley Care was delighted to be chosen as one of three Charity of the Year partners at The Edinburgh Playhouse in 2022.

By pooling together all the fundraising efforts during the festivals in August, we anticipate that this year's final fundraising total will reach an impressive £61,427.56! These amazing contributions will play a crucial role in our mission to #GetToZero new HIV transmissions in Scotland by 2030.
