Do you work in an HIV support service in England? Come along to our free webinar on Wednesday 3rd May and learn how to support people living with HIV who are experiencing discrimination in employment. 

People who have accessed our HIV Discrimination Advice and Support Service have reported that employment is one of the most commons areas in which they have faced discrimination.
