COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Meeting people where they live and work is a really effective way of spreading key messages around sexual health, and generating increased demand for and access to services.
Using staff members and volunteers with strong local knowledge and a good rapport with people in the community, we are able to make connections, raise awareness and refer to services. The organisation’s outreach teams start conversations, and disseminates information about HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
Kunsaka enables safer sex by distributing condoms and other prophylactics.
We work across London to make sure people have the information and materials they need to stay healthy, happy and safe.
PEER SUPPORT GROUP
Sharing experiences and hearing the journeys of other people living with HIV/AIDS can be really helpful in allowing an individual to come to terms with their diagnosis and get the most out of life.
Support groups provide a confidential and friendly space for individuals to talk through their issues and be supported by their peers, safe in the knowledge that they will not face judgement or embarrassment. Our support groups create this dynamic, while offering expert advice and support.
Within the support group setting, a structured programme of workshops and talks makes available a wide range of topics and information. While we cover a broad array of topics, our workshops are all designed to help individuals to access the opportunities and information they need to live life to the full.
