HIV Services ‘Crumbling’ in the UK
Source: National AIDS Trust

A report launched today by the AIDS Funders’ Forum reveals that neglect and complacency in the commissioning of HIV services has created a chaotic and fragmented system, which is failing people living with HIV in the UK.

The report, The growing challenge: A strategic review of HIV social care, support and information services across the UK, is based on the results of a survey of HIV services commissioners and service providers from across the UK. The report reveals frustrations amongst both commissioners and service providers at an inadequate system that fails to assess what is needed by people living with HIV in the UK both now and in the future.
