Countdown to World AIDS Day

The National AIDS Trust (NAT) has announced this year's World AIDS Day (1st December) theme - "You, Me, Us: We can prevent the spread of HIV and end prejudice"; and launched its Virtual Red Ribbon campaign which aims to get 7,000 organisations sporting the famous ribbon online - one for each person who will be newly diagnosed with HIV in the UK this year.

The Virtual Ribbon will direct people to the UK World AIDS Day website (www.worldaidsday.org) where they can get ideas for taking action including fundraising, ensuring your workplace doesn't discriminate against people with HIV and campaigning for free HIV treatment for all.
