We've come a long way since the 1980's and while HIV is a life-changing condition, it is no longer a life-threatening condition. Modern drug treatments offer people with HIV a near-normal life expectancy.

In 2022, there were 1,325 people in Northern Ireland living with HIV and 76 new cases of HIV were diagnosed. 

Positive Life are on a mission to make Northern Ireland the first UK region to reach the World Health Organisation’s target of Zero New Diagnosis by 2030. This goal is very achievable with improved education, awareness and more testing. Northern Ireland could be the first region to reach zero – how amazing would that be? 

In order to achieve this target by 2030, there's a lot of work to be done, and that's where we need your support. 

Every donation helps us keep our doors open and continue the vital work that we do supporting people living with HIV in Northern Ireland.
