Wales has reaffirmed its commitment to ending #HIV by 2030 🚨 "Wales has a real opportunity to end new HIV cases by 2030. We look forward to working with the Welsh Government & our partners across the sector to turn this into reality." Read our response: https://ow.ly/28s650ZQ5k0

📢"Voluntary organisations have been fundamental to the UK's [#HIV] response for decades" Thanks @kateosbornemp.bsky.social & cross-party MPs for supporting amendments to the Health Bill that would’ve strengthened the voluntary sector's role in designing and delivering health services.

Without cross-government action, England risks missing its 2030 #HIV targets. HIV can not be treated as a health issue alone. We need action across immigration, housing, welfare & more. It's time for every Government department to play its part: https://ow.ly/mF4U50ZLnTM
