Health Initiatives

Mission/Vision

What does the organization do?
Health Initiatives (HI) has grown and impacted sexual health beyond the classroom. Findings and information were presented at conferences including The Fresh Blood Conference, National Children’s Bureau and the NHS. Addressed MPs ‘All Parliamentary Group on AIDS’ and the Department of Health on sexual health issues, young people and HIV.

Opportunities for Youth
HI is a HIV peer run charity in the UK to provide services specifically for young people under the age of 27. Youth is offered a space where they can meet and interact with each other. They can find accurate, age appropriate information and counselling that motivates them to take control of their lives when testing and living with HIV/AIDS.
